E- stim and spinal stem

I'm looking at having a spinal cord stimulator implanted around April. I don't stim often, and when I do, it's with a dipole rectal plug. Anyone have any ideas on this? I know a pacemaker is one thing (because you need the heart to always work). I'm not too sure though with a spinal stim. Probably not cause it's suck to have to get it replaced.

Why are you having a spinal cord stimulater implanted?

To be on the safe side, I would at least ask your physician if he thinks there would be interference between the implanted medical device and your toys.

My guess is NOT to use your estim. You don't want to short circuit or cause other software failures in your medical device. I have used deep rectal estim and if in the right place with the proper power, it will make my legs convulse all the way down to my toes.

Why are you having a spinal cord stimulater implanted?

Chronic severe back pain.

I had an infection in the very bottom disc 12 years ago. It completely dissolved and the vertebra fused themselves (like the survery they do but without surgery). That caused a cascade of failing discs all the way up my back. Its about 8 of them now. The biggest problem is that when the bones fused, it compressed the nerves coming out of both sides so not only are my feet basically numb, they hurt at the same time. Sounds counterintuitive i know, but trust me, it happens.
