you're having a 10s unit "installed in the bod" ?  i'm not sure what you mean by this.  i had a 10s unit that i wore and could adjust the patterns and strength on.  it did help for some things....but i don't know of anyone that has had one installed in their body!  is this some new procedure they are trying?

how else does it work?  I thought it was something that was inside the bod just under the skin?  See I do not know a whole lot about it...I just got the call - the nuero and I talked about it last week.  I guess, I should have asked more questions perhaps.  

I know someone that has a device that some type of device that is placed under the skin
in her back that runs electrical currents to places into her back.

I was Iooking at this:  

implant for Bilateral Greater Occipatal Neuralgia she has TBI

I was thinking it was a tens unit; as she has chiari as well.

I was confused - sorry about that.

No worries...from what I understand it just wraps  with velcro...and sends an electric impluse...kinda like the ab  belts u see on infomercials.....
