I had two epidurals in the last six months and they did not work. I’m in the process of an ablation and I’m praying that this gives me some relief! The pain in my buttocks is unbelievable. I’m too old for surgery so there might not be an answer for me. Fingers crossed that Ablation will work.

If the ablations do not work, you might consider a trial of a spinal cord stimulator. They provide good relief for many people with chronic pain, especially in the back and buttocks. The trial is a relatively simple procedure that is often done in the pain specialist's office.
