I had RFA in my lower spinal facets last November 2023. It lasted until about 3 weeks ago. Then had steroid injection in the facets last week and they didn’t work.
I have another appointment on Thursday July 25th but I don’t want steroid injections again.
I also have a consultation with a pain surgeon scheduled for Wednesday July 24 for my right sacral ileum (sacroiliac??) joint because steroid injections do not last a week anymore and I desperately want some relief from the pain. Right now I’m surviving the pain on Percocet oxycodone 7.5 Acetaminophen 325 mg one and a half tablets three times a day.
