Jane,

Actually the batteries now are indefinite. As long as you recharge them

regularly there should never be a problem. However, once you let the unit

go completely dead it can be recharged and saved by the company. This can

only be done once, the second time you would need it replaced. The battery

is 34,000.00. I wished I owned the battery company,

I have had a dorsal column stimulator in for maybe 6 or 7 yrs. Mine

was put in by a Neurosergon. It does help and now the newer ones have

batteries that last for about ten years. Which is nice because the

older ones batteries would die in less than a year. The new ones have

a charger so you can recharge the battery at home. I think you should

have the procedure done it will most likely help you.
