What Causes Weakness And Tinging Sensation In The Legs?

I have had a lot of surgeries on my back and had a stimulator pt in me to control the pain in my lower parts. I had surgery clear up to my T6 and it is causing a lot of pain in the lead when I have it on. I have had this severe pain where the lead is for a year and a half and I told them and they tell me to turn the stimulator down. I finally turned it off. It has been off for 2 months and the pain up at T6 gets less. the oriblem when I turn it offm my legs and arms tingle and are very weak. can u tell me what my problem is?
