but IF it's anything like IVIG [really, an invasive procedure] and one involving either injecting joints or directly adjacent or into nerve fibres...I really would like to check out the overall stats for success rates..

Found this site:

And one aspect of the procedures described is the fourth s/e under 'side effects'. I suspect that can be translated into permanent damage. If what I have is considered 'temporary' {BAH!} I sure would hate to know what permanent is?
I guess it's because I feel that as long as I can FEEL those nerves protesting, that I can HOPE that they are healing. But, I sure wish they would let up their protest once in a while, for just a little bit! - j

If you do it, I sure would want to hear all about it!
