An update on me - my back pain is still gone but all of the neuropathy came back (tingling / knee twitching / localized nerve pain etc) the injection did well pretty much 6 months, P/T was great but the knee twitches are now on both sides ... I will probably do one more as I now have hernias to repair so I will need to get that behind me b/f I do anything on the spine. I learned my S1 is congenitally fused which is why I have issues at the L4/L5 level. It is a little comforting to know I did create the condition at least. I will be meeting a neurosurgeon in June to discuss options. I came across an interesting procedure called Coflex. Has anyone had this vs a fusion?
Thanks! I started P/T today and am not in much pain just mostly tingling and fascitations. A dull ache in my right buttocks. I think I just went back to my old routine too aggressively vs being mindful and perhaps the shot would have lasted longer.
