@blowerk1216 My injection was diagnostic and it did reduce pain from spinal issues, but it also caused new pain because I had a bad reaction to it. I think I was allergic to something in the injection. I was getting burning electrical pain shooting into my hand. That took about 6 weeks to resolve. I only had 5 days of relief before my normal pain started returning slowly. A few weeks later all that pain was back with the added pains into my hand.
