Spinal Cord Stimulator

[susanhd]

Hello,
I just had this implanted 2 days ago. AFter 20 yrs. of chronic knee pain then a TKR, developed RSD! Now I have this stim. and my pain is under control finally. Can anyone tell me if tub baths are allowed, and how many days after the surgery you can take a shower? I can call my doc Monday but just wondered if anyone has any info.
thanks!
