My neighbor had it done and he is pain-free now. I had a double spinal fusion in 2022. My lower back pain has never gone away. I had 2 spinal steroid injections a week ago. They say it could take up to two weeks for it to work. I'm guessing it's not going to help the pain. I've been researching the intracept surgery. It sounds very promising. I've had lower back pain for over 3 years so I will definitely be suggesting this procedure to my doctor I talked with him about ablation and he didn't seem like he wanted to do that. If necessary I will be switching doctors who are more open to other treatments. Has anyone had this done and is now pain-free? I also have polyfibramyalgia rheumatic so I pain is a way of life for me right now. I would love to be pain-free one day!
