Blimey Jackie .. I went just down the road to The Northern General in Sheffield .. after a long round about route; having had an operation at Thornbury Hospital in Sheffield in 2004, I was diagnosed with degenerative facet joints and failed back surgery at Chesterfield Pain Clinic. I've had a long, long list of medications, including Oxycontin which is the nastiest drug I've ever had, and I have been referred to The Pain Clinic at The Northern General and am being trialed for a Spinal Cord Stimulator in May.
After reading of your experience, I feel very lucky.
