Yes I do! Also right leg. I had a Radiofrequency Nerve Ablation done last year which worked well and plan to have it done again.

I was told the RFA wouldn’t help sciatica. Glad yours did! May I ask which levels you had done? My issue is at L5/S1. The pain doc wanted to do three levels right and left, so six ablations. I was concerned about that weakening my multifidus muscles so I said no, and got my first cortisone shot 10 days ago. It hasn’t helped the sciatic pain, but may be helping the arthrosis pain.
