Dear Doc,
I've got the sacroiliac joint disease, lateral nerves branches radiofrequency lesioining done about 10 days ago, in which I had flare up of pain since day 4 post-op. Now the pain is persisted, isn't that normal?

Hi Again Seesaw,

There are very few SIJ sufferers. We are a rare breed. I have sent you a PM. It will also show you how to send others a PM. Just click on the  inbox word in the upper right hand corner of this page, next to log out.

Peace, Tuck

Hi Seesaw,

Welcome to the Pain Management Forum of MedHelp. You are not stupid. We all make error, at least I do. I too have SIJ Dysfunction/Disease. I have not had the treatment you have had. I have herd more bad than good about the effects of the procedure.

Please let me know how you are doing. According to the information that I have and how I understood the procedure you should NOT have more pain after day four.

A fellow SIJ sufferer,
Tuck

Thanks again! I thought I was in the wrong forum, so went here, waiting for the doctors to answer my question, so stupid!

I should also tell you that if you go to the top of the screen and go to Forums, on the right hand of the Forum page are professional Doctors who may be able to help. You should post the question there as well.

Hi seesaw:

It's me again, There are no Doctors in the Pain Forum, only others with chronic pain as I have. I will have members who have gone through this contact you. Please be patient as members come on at different times. We are all in pain and some do not respond right away. Hang in there, I'll send Shell and tuck a Personal Message for you.
