Hi I have a question to see if anyone has expirenced this. I am having severe pain where the battery is placed it is affecting my hip and makes it really hard to walk. I asked my two with St Jude about it and he says he has never heard of such a thing. I'm getting really frustrated with it because it hurts 24/7. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks. lLinda

    Linda talk to the surgeon about this.  I have a St. Jude stimulator in since 3/2/17.  I just started to experience from the battery placement.  I am calling the surgeon on Monday to move my appointment up.  

    Good luck.
