Intolerance: I believe that you are intolerant of eggs with respect to your IBS and since this is not a true allergy there should be no cross reaction to other foods.

On average, the implantation of a spinal cord stimulator is going to be anywhere from $20,000 to as much as $60,000 without any sort of insurance. This does not include the evaluations and annual fees. There are some websites such as Spineuniversity.com that states the total implantation cost would reach as high as $57,800.
Additional costs: A spinal cord stimulator battery must typically be replaced every 2 to 5 years. Post surgery, pain will be managed with narcotic medications for a short period, which may cause constipation and require laxatives. Over-the-counter laxatives and stool softeners typically cost $2 -$25 depending on the brand and amount.
