Again welcome to NT

Welcome to NeuroTalk! You will find many nice, friendly, and helpful people here.

Hi...I've had many SI treatments. I had a CT guided nerve ablation in 11/08. It has done the most to lower the chronic pain I suffered with for over 4 years. Previously the SI injections I received were under flouroscope, and while they did reduce the pain..it was very short lived.

With all my proceedures..I have been quite painful the first few days, relying on pain meds, ice packs, and staying quiet.

I wish you good results from your proceedure, I understand first hand just how much pain and suffering you are experiencing.

Also, feel free to send me PM if you wouold like to share any info.

Anita,
