I had a pulsed radio frequency ablation . I think this is similar except that the nerves aren't severed. Anyways, this did nothing for me. I woke up feeling so much worse, they gave me Fentanyl to calm things down.

Stressed out,
I just read something about this being like ice packs when you first get injured. Not good. And I wore velcroed ice packs around my ankles and feet and the doc says that's part of my problem. But whenever (which was at least twice a week) I would call and tell them how bad the pain was the answer was always, "it's just a bad bruise ice packs and ibuprofen. I haven't thought of an appropriate way to say thanks yet as they still don't think I have a problem, eve though they've seen my black feet!
