I'm now trying RF nerve treatment, bilaterally. So far it's been about 6 weeks and the pain has substantially reduced. It's not gone 100%, but probably 80%.
Good luck with your treatment.

Charliebubs,
I just asked HowardPatrick about the RF treatment & meant to ask you - is this like a NeuroStim Trial? Please explain the treatment. I have ON since 07 but out of work since September 08. Did nerve block, a cervical facet attempt that was a disaster and NeruoStim Trial, I want to know about NeuroStim success/% of relief. I was wondering if RF is same of different. Thanks to you & everyone for input. I am still trying to find out if others have trouble driving. I have great difficulty with it - brings on shocks & body spasms and feeling of head swelling. I now am on cobra & desperate for relief so I can work before losing everything.
