Exhausting is the correct word.
Would you do the nerve Ablation if you had it to do over?
Doctors act like I’m a junkie when I ask for tramadol! I’m 74. If I were going to become an addict it would have happened before now.

The ablation was very minimal and the pain is less but not gone. A diagnostic test is done first and then the real deal. Very quick and relatively painless. If it wears off I can get another in 6 months which I will do if needed. I was taking 100 mg trazadone at night but made me spacey in am. Now take Lyrica and cbd/melatonin at night. Hopefully can get rid of Lyrica soon, gradually. Recommend getting myofascial release therapy as soon as possible to help prevent excessive scar tissue.
