Anyone had an ablation for lower back pain

I have had the ablation about three times. I had spurs gouging into the nerves so it helped a lot. I still have back problems but not the sharp unrelenting pain that I had before. I am so glad I had it done before my Dr retired.

Had ablation done among 10 other procedures after a failed surgery of a fusion of L5/S1. This surgery was done 10 years ago and the 10 procedures were done by my pain specialist. I also had a laminectomy which didn't help. My pain specialist gives me Norco which is the only thing that helps me lead a normal life with limitations, like walking far. My last procedure was the spinal stimulator which didn't help either.
