Doctors claim oxycodone exacerbates pain but nothing else helps

I have chronic back pain also which was also unmanageable. I had the ablation or burning of the nerve to relieve the pain. The first one lasted 16 months of relief. Last year I had a 2nd one & so far it’s been 15 months and I’m just starting to feel the pain. So maybe you should try the ablation. It’s worth a try. I’m very happy with it.

I have also had ablation in my back due to back pain (too many accidents). Once done it was wonderful to be able to take my favorite past-times (kayaking, biking, hiking) and getting to enjoy the days without the pain. My ablations were done under light sedation but the other choice was 'local' anesthesia. My ablations don't last as long as I'd like - I get them every six months. But that's OK - I'm up and around pain free.

Thank you for your response. I'm glad you got relief from the pain. I'm required to have 2 additional appointments and 12 shots to see if I can even have the ablation. Ugh
