I have had the facet block three times; did NOTHING for the pain. The last time, he did 6 injections; still nothing at all. I'm considering the Intracept procedure, but it is fairly new. {I have 6 different issues going on in my back]

I am NOT a spine doctor but IMO if the facet blocks failed then you can only assume the source of the pain is not coming from those facet nerves. The problem is how to determine the location of the source.
