Definitely call your doctor -- I've not heard of it making the pain levels go UP. See what your doc says. And please let us know what you find out.
In the meantime, use ICE for 20 minutes every 2 hours (this is according to my Neurosurgeon). The ice should help with the inflammation, plus it can reduce the pain. Best of luck & God bless. Hugs, Lee

Thank you, Lee. I have read some things on the RFA about the pain increasing before it gets better, but I still don't think what's goin on with me is quite normal so I will be calling my doc first thing next week rather than waiting for the follow up. So sorry to hear the RFA didn't work for you either.
Blessing and hugs to you!
