Has anyone else had a neurostimulator implanted for pain control?

My Dr. was talking to me about putting the neurostimulator in or on my ear. Is this possible?

Bella111 - Yes... the neurostimulator that goes on your ear is called Stivax. I am on my 2nd week of therapy. For me, it has made a huge difference. You can google the name for information. It's been around for about a year and is cutting edge therapy. It even helps with the depression that comes with chronic pain. I have been living on chronic pain since 1996. I have tried everything under the sun. the best therapy for me was with narcotics. I am pretty happy with the results this far! It is virtually painless. The only pain I had was when the Dr stuck it into the skin on my ear because the ears are so sensitive. But there are theses two little titanium prongs that stick into the skin of the ear that send out electrical pulses, similar to a TENS unit. One gets put onto /into one ear for 7 days, then the other ear for the next 7 days.
