How hard can it be to write an Android version of an iphone app?  Is the
connection protocol with the stimulator inside me different?  Would the
stimulator have to be changed too, or would Android phones communicate
with other devices using the same protocol that iPhones do?
 

No idea - depends on all sorts of things, including contractual and
licensing. Somewhere between 'not easy' and 'very hard' at a guess.

 
Even if a separate style stimulator would also be needed, how hard is it
to modify the programs to work on an Android phone.  It sounds simple to
me. In PC language, only the drivers would have to be changed, because
they interface between the software and the hardware.  Isnt' it already
well known what changes need to be made in iphone vs. android drivers?
(There is a remote control that they probably intend for me to use, but
the app does much more.)

What you should ask is - what minimum version of iOS does the app need? If
it runs on an oldish iPhone just buy a cheap one. Someone will probably
give you one - I've never paid for an iPhone yet. But I might, if I had
your back problem.
