I have heard two women say that their recalled EON mini is causing them "radiation sickness", that one of them cannot use her arms or legs due to the recalled battery.
Both of these women claim that their hermatically-sealed battery cases have cracked and the internal "liquid" is "coating (their) spinal cords".
They seem to believe that they are experiencing a life-threatening medical issue due to the battery recall.
Are they crazy, or can these women really get radiation sickness from a little short in the micro-circuitry?
These women have a Facebook site called "My Spinal Cord Stimulator", whereby they believe that "over 300" members of this group also have systematic illness related to their recalled units- that many have "cracks" or "rupture" of their battery cases.
One-of the two leaders, "Rinny Beth", claims that her battery case is cracked and she is experiencing radiation sickness because of this. She claims, on many related websites, that her recalled battery is, "frying my bahookie".
The other leader, Cindy A. Walker, who boasts that the neuro-surgeon who implanted her mini EON was her boyfriend whom, she questions, may have purposefully implanted a recalled unit into her as some sort-of recompense toward her. (Interestingly, Walker is employed as a "body wrap" technician, an unlicensed job not requiring a college education- a rather unlikely match for a neurosurgeon.)
She (Walker) also believes that she has acquired, "radiation sickness" due to her recalled battery, that her arms and legs constantly shake and that she is unable to properly use her arms and legs as sequale of her recalled Mini EON battery.
These two freely report these, and many other bizarre symptomatology, on their, "My Spinal Cord Stimulator", Facebook page and their personal Facebook pages.
Rinny Beth also speaks of having commenced litigation against St Judes Medical and believes her MD is "fighting for" her. She is expecting an enormous amount of money for her "suffering".
CRAZY!!
