question on stimulator surgery

[Guest guest]

Hi -- I have been a member of this group for quite a while on behalf of my wife,

but have never posted. She just had stimulator surgery yesterday after a very

successful trial a few months back. She is experiencing a good deal of pain

today. I am assuming that everything is normal (she had no complications during

the surgery) but we are seeking reassurance that the pain she is having is due

mainly to having the device inserted and that it will go away. She has pain meds

to take but she still experiences pain when moving in and out of bed. She is

able to walk around the house with not much pain. Can anyone provide any

comments or experiences based on their surgery? She will not be reading these

posts.
