Was the Radio Frequency Worth It?
After weighing the good with the bad I have to say no. The pain was gone for about a week and then it came back. I could deal with that knowing that sometimes you may need two sets to fully knock out the pain but what I cannot deal with is the new symptoms. I do not get hungry at all. I could go... Read more...

The... Read more...

The pain is so bad that when I try to get what little sleep I can manage, I sleep on the floor. Sad but true. This is the only place that I can get enough relief to catch a few winks... Read more...

Update
Well I chose to have another round of injections to make sure the nerve burn is what I need to do. I had the injections today. My left leg on the mid to outside is numb and so is my foot, (not suppose to be numb at all). Not easy to walk right now. I hope this goes away by the morning and isn't... Read more...

Injections... Round Two
Well I had another set of injections today. They put more cortisone in this time. I am really in a lot of pain but hopefully all of the medications he injected will kick in and reduce some of the nerve and joint swelling. My back is swelled again from all the injections. I just keep praying... Read more...

My First Set Of Injections
I had my first set of injections from L3-S1 yesterday morning. The first two hours felt so good. Then reality set in. The pain increased and now it hurts worse than before the injections. I am not giving up on this just yet. I will give it a few days for the medication to work and see how things... Read more...
