MILD procedure L4-L5

Thank you for informing me of your adventure with MILD. I'm trying to be patient but I am disappointed that I have had no relief. Gymnastics is hard on the body and I have a high tolerance to pain. But I am getting so tired of it. I have had multiple injuries over the years and surgeries, including shoulder surgery, multiple knee surgeries and bilateral knee replacements. I think my disappointment is because I was led to believe that I would experience pain relief almost immediately.

@judymehaffey
Just take it day by day or hour by hour if need be.
Recovery is not linear unfortunately.
Is your pain sciatica or back?

@judymehaffey I am sorry and not a little surprised that a practitioner would tell you to expect immediate relief from the MILD. None of the medical explanations of the procedure I have read promise that.

Maybe, after three months or so, you could look for someone for another opinion on the status of your back.
