Spinal update
Well, the really severe pain from the spinal injections has passed. So has the time in which the procedure should have worked. However, my back is the same as before I had the injections. Im pretty happy that the pain from the procedure has gone and wasnt a permanant thing but it would seem that the pain from the two neurotomies are long term, I mean the pain might improve when the nerves regrow, it might not though, no one has an answer to this, no one seems to understand why Im in more pain after those procedures.
To the best of my understanding that was it, that was the last thing to be tried, there isnt anything more that they can do. Ive suggested in my update email to the Neurosurgeon a spinal cord stimulator however I have my doubts. Having a very rough time coming to terms that this might be the end of the line and unlike last time they said it was the end of the line, Im in more pain now because I tried to get out of pain.
