Hi All,

I am about ready to have a facet Rhizotomy done at L3/L4/L5 and S1. My spinal PM doc is a "gem" and I have been with him for 4 years now. He did an ESI first; helped a little. Then he did a Sacroilliac injection; same thing. Then he did the facet blocks which lasted about a week...all on the left side by the way. And it is the left leg that has been giving me fits. His point is is that the pain will keep coming back (and it has), plus the fact that the facet blocks gave me relief. So, his deal is that the Rhizotomy should give me relief. I am not so sure this will work but I am willing to give it a try.
