My pain is so much worse than it was before the procedure. I was wondering has anyone had any weird side effects from the RF Ablation? I don't even know if its possible but a couple of days after the procedures the palms of my hands have become week and in pain. Both of them in the same place I can't grip anything with my right hand at all without pain shooting in it. Has anyone else had that reaction? Anyone with any information would be helpfull. I go back to the PM Doc on January 3rd and I am going to let him know how dissapointed I am that this did not work I am done with injections and RF Ablation. He actually told me that this had worked on 100 percent of his patients right. Ok well thanks everybody for listening to me.
