Back into Pain Management

I'm so relieved to be back into pain management for my neck.  My PM doc is going to do an ESI on two or three levels at a time.  Hopefully this will help with the pain.  I'm hoping the pain is due inflammation and not nerve damage from my spinal cord.

Thanks Tuck and tata.  Tata, I've had the discectomy with the fusion and it didn't help with the pain yet.

I have been contemplating this as well good luck and I hope it works for you RunningMom.  My doctor tells me that I can do it but it probably will not matter in the long run and that I will need the discectormy--ALL the BEST.

Hi Runningmom,

I am very glad that you are back in PM also. I appreciate your update. ESI's can be very helpful in reducing pain and I hope this will be true in your case.

I'll look forward to your next update. It is always good to hear encouraging news.
Hang in there and take care, Tuck
