    I had this done, exposed lumbar nerves. Plus Lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
    This must been an act of God on my behalf.
    I suffered 6 years of pain, literally crawling on the ground flopping on the ground, pain I can't describe. Had the procedure and was told 6 mo. to a year for relief. I'm sorry for those still in pain. For a few days the pain intensified, then it went away. It 💯 went away, it never came back. Knock on wood and praise god!!!
    I am now 7 years free from pain that was so intense for 6 whole years! Free from begging for my life to just end! I can't say enough that this procedure saved my life!

      😮 Oh my gosh the sounds excruciating! I'm in my 30s in dealing with this horrible pain and sciatica😢. Do you know what the exact procedure you got is called? My worry is to just have temporary relief, I would like to be healed
      Such an amazing outcome you have🎉

      Hi
      I’m suffering from left leg pain most likely sciatica, i feel so much weakness in my body, i have done mri and all blood tests, there’s nothing wrong in my reports, I’m suffering from two years. Please let me what’s the procedure called to see if there’s any nerve root blockage.😢

    I had this procedure this week. I did not use anesthesia. Left shoulder pain was at a 10 point on the pain scale. The doctor numbed the area with an injection which in itself is very painful. Then, under x-ray he proceeded with the ablation. It did hurt, I won't lie, but the pain is only for 30-40 seconds and it's over. Much pain later that night but ice helped. The next day was a marked improvement. Pain level about a 2. This is the 3rd time I have done this over a span of 5 years. It helps for a long period of time 6 months to a year and then my problem begins again. But it's better than surgery.

    When through this process and experienced no change whatsoever.
    I had to do a second injection called Hernicore to feel my pain reduced by the week, finally.
    For those suffering from herniated discs, please do not wait for it to go away. Ask your doctor to proceed to any surgical or non-surgical intervention. You will get your life back sooner.

      So sorry anyone would have to go through this. I’m having nerve block on. 3-4-5 in a few weeks. If I get any relief, they will try another. If that one brings some relief we will
      Move forward with ablation. It just drags and drags out!!! Insurance squeezing all the can from you until it’s so bad you need surgery. Ugh!

    It appears a nerve block during a rotator cuff surgery has left me with a blood clot and half of my right lung being nonfunctional..
    Will not go into the specifics of the lack of response from the doctor who performed the surgery but a hospital stay was able to get me out of immmediat distress. A VERY GOOD PA was able to help me out with determing what was going on. Comparing pre op xrays and CTs he has determined half.of.my right lung is no functionimg . He researched and determined it may be necessary to have a surgeon go in and perform repair/ pressure release surgery on that chest nerve
    We are not able to locate a surgeon that can perform this surgery. I am close to the Dallas FT Worth area , there was a surgeon in that area who performed the surgery , but he is no longer a available (retirement??? Not sure)
    In any case do you have a referral of a surgeon who may be able to help and has experience with this post op /nerve block damage issue?

      Take the relief I can get from pain meds anyway over a block. One nerve block sent my hip and thigh into spasms so bad they pulled me face down to my knees with any attempt to walk! This lasted in intensity for 9 months. and left me in severe pain and a terrible limp.
      It has been exactly 4 yrs. ago and no change with use of hip and leg since.
      NEVER AGAIN.

      Obviously the pain meds no longer work. Also some ppl have taken pain meds so much it destroyed their stomach lining and causing liver/kidney damage. So stop being close minded and judgmental. There is a reason for more options than just pain meds.
