Thank you for responding!!! I don't want to put words in your mouth but are you saying this procedure is "hit or miss" that you will get positive results from this procedure! Do you know if there is in general a good track record? I will do my investigation as I always do trying to gather information..

@gailmollin Surgery should be the last Thing you do try everything else before read my post to you on chiropractor

@gailmollin
No problem. In my instances, it has been hit or miss.
I've had the procedure done about 4 times, in different areas of my body, by different docs.
The first 2 did not do the 'test' so other than to use the flouescope to see the 'area' they were in, they really went in blind.
The last time I went through the test first snd it did give me just a few minutes, maybe a half hour of relief. Rather than do another test, the doc just did the procedure. Adly, it did not work. It was at that point and after trying everything else, I decided to have cervical spine surgery.
Surgery should always be the last option. If a doc tries to push it too soon, a red flag should go up.

Hope this makes things clearer.
