I think what u had done on the neck is called ESI (epidural steroid injections) were your shots done x-ray guided?---if yes---- you can get them done in a series of 3 within a year. There is surgery ---but most surgeons wont consider it just for pain --- its called acdf or spinal fusion it usually done if you have spinal compresssion. Have you taken your MRI of neck to neuro or ortho spinal surgeon?
