Hello and thank you all very much for your reply, sorry I have not been able to reply until now.

No, the Dr didn't use any kind of imaging to guide the needle, dumb of me I now know, he said he was the leading person to do the injections and has never had any problems with a patient, knew I should have left but I was in so much pain and he is the only Dr I can go to get this done....never again though

I am waiting for my Dr to decide what to do next, I know things should have been tried months ago but the Dr's get annoyed, or so it seems, if I try to suggest something.

Think the injection was at C7. The pain in my left ankle has subsided a little.

Thank you all again.
