Hi Jess18,
I'm new to the board and this is my first post.
My daughter has been diagnoised with Cervical Myofascial Pain.

We live in Charlotte also and she has trigger points done at the Southeast Pain Center on Randolph Rd. Dr. Munez is excellent.

You can have up to 9 or 10 shots at a time. You can only have some much of the lidocane or procane as it will become toxic if you get too much.

My daughter has had the best relief from these. She has reduced her meds and is starting to have pain levels reduced from 6-8 down to 2-4. Sorness lasts about 3 days for the injections but the pain you feel before you get the shots will get worse after the shots and last about 5-7 days and then it will subside.

Excellent tool for treatment.

Hope you get relief soon.

Sheri in Charlotte
