I had triggerpoint injections in my right hand about 3 years ago before I finally had surgery to release the nerve.

They hurt. I almost passed out. They had to bring Bill back to get me.

They do last if it isn't really bad. Mine lasted for over a year. Then I went back and he did it again and it lasted about a year but it just go so bad he decided to go in and do release the nerve as I said.

I didn't have to have any therapy either. The shot really did help the pain.
