Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 From a pain management doc, it is implanted thru surgery. Cost.....about 90,000.00 but it is paid for by insurance.....it is implanted into the epidural space and changes the pain to numbness.....once you get used to that feeling....you forget its even there,,,,,,a great thing and the only bad point is that I its expensive.
