How big is it?

How big is the implant? Will it itch or hurt forever? Anyone know?

Well the Implant is about two inches in width and two inches in length..

I had some problem with it itching me at first it was from the stitches but after my stitches heal is was ok for me, as for it hurting me all the time never had the problem.
I know it is there but it does not brother me at all and I had the InterStim Implant now over five years..
The Implant is placed in a pocket of skin inside of me and so it will not fall out.

That sounds a bit scarry but I have not even had the nerve block yet and if it works I probebly will not care how big it is (I hope). So it does not hurt now? What a mirical this is, before I had IC i had no idea they could do such things!
Thank you for your post
