Medication is not being offered at the pain management office although I have previously used oxycodone to no avail. Epidural type injection in my neck with fluroscopy guidance and injected dye is suggested. I am not presently interested- not only because of the risk involved but also because there is no guarantee of pain relief for my headaches or for the annoying shoulder tingling caused by the compressed nerves. It would probably make my neck feel better, I'd guess. I deal with the neck pain with heated neck wraps and some traction which is helpful.
