My PM scheduled the RF procedure just shy of a month after my facet joint block. Seems to me, that if the block works, for temporarily blocking the pain, then it is considered successful and the PM or whoever will then schedule the RF if you consent.

I had my block done in blocks done in March and a few weeks later the RF procedure was done...
