I’d be happy to share with you. Mine started 1986 from a bad car wreck. I had a fusion in my check C3-C4 at that time. In 1994 again by an out of control driver and I ended up with C3-C4 broken and wiped out C4_C7. My Same Neurologist put me back together with a full titanium place C3-C7.
I was good for a few yeas then I started having bad to severe pain S5 - S1. I had periodic Cortisone bilaterally for a few years until that only lasted for weeks not months. I eat hearing about the Arizona Pain Doctors was the place to go for chronic pain. I called and was able to make an appointment. I took in CT scans, X-rays and an older MRI.
They sent me for a new MRI so they could see exactly how things looked. 5 days later I was back in looking at my spine. They explained and showed me what needed to be done. They put me in twilight (you know nothing but
Asked me how my pain level was and I actually cried because I had no pain. I had to wait 2 weeks and they did it again. It has been 2 years now and no pain unless I do something silly but it goes away. I actually have the main nerve @ C4 that run down your spine that gets pinched and sends me through the roof. It goes down to my knee. My next step is Radiofrequency Ablation. The doctors have several procedures they do depending on what your issues are. I felt so blessed to have found them. Two of my friends have gone and they are as pleased as me. I wish you well. The actual terminology for my injections was Lumbar Medial Branch Block Bilateral. I was a little sore for a couple days an d that was it.

I wish I was close enough to go there; sounds amazing.

I’d be happy to share with you. Mine started 1986 from a bad car wreck. I had a fusion in my check C3-C4 at that time. In 1994 again by an out of control driver and I ended up with C3-C4 broken and wiped out C4_C7. My Same Neurologist put me back together with a full titanium place C3-C7.
I was good for a few yeas then I started having bad to severe pain S5 - S1. I had periodic Cortisone bilaterally for a few years until that only lasted for weeks not months. I eat hearing about the Arizona Pain Doctors was the place to go for chronic pain. I called and was able to make an appointment. I took in CT scans, X-rays and an older MRI.
They sent me for a new MRI so they could see exactly how things looked. 5 days later I was back in looking at my spine. They explained and showed me what needed to be done. They put me in twilight (you know nothing but
Asked me how my pain level was and I actually cried because I had no pain. I had to wait 2 weeks and they did it again. It has been 2 years now and no pain unless I do something silly but it goes away. I actually have the main nerve @ C4 that run down your spine that gets pinched and sends me through the roof. It goes down to my knee. My next step is Radiofrequency Ablation. The doctors have several procedures they do depending on what your issues are. I felt so blessed to have found them. Two of my friends have gone and they are as pleased as me. I wish you well. The actual terminology for my injections was Lumbar Medial Branch Block Bilateral. I was a little sore for a couple days an d that was it.
