They agreed. It is a treatment that has been used on those with shingles, and has provided them with up to 3 months of relief, I understand the risks, and just like everything else there are risks what one person experiences may not be what another does, ie ketamine infusions some have had great results while i have seen someone that has been in a wheelchair now for over a year and was in the hospital for 4 weeks after the first treatment. I have a scs that some swear by but each time i use it my pain levels go even higher if that was even possible. so time will tell, i just am praying for great things, not just for me but for all of us!!!!!
