I just finished my ablation block to see if I’m a good candidate.
I also got no relief from the blocks so I won’t get the ablation.
Good luck. I feel your pain.

@marshasacks Thank you. I hope you find some relief. And me too!

@marshasacks As I understand it, no relief from the blocks usually means that is not the cause. The reason for the first two blocks is diagnostic. I went through the process bc of facet joint arthritis.
if you are in NY, are you being treated at HSS? I saw Johnathan Kirshner MD there.
