I sure hope that you find good resolution from the pain you are experiencing. One thing I have learned from my own experiences, is that you need to like the physician who is treating you. I would not want someone injecting me eithor if I didn't like him to begin with. Maybe you would consider another opinion from another doctor with whom you could have a decent relationsip with. So much depends on trust. It is just a thought I had. I do wish you all the best. ginnie
