Got the Branch nerve blocks a few weeks ago...Old Post from June That I Never Posted

So, you get these branch bundle nerve blocks in a variety of locations in the lumbar spine (in my case), and the results (did you get pain relief, did you not) helps the doctor isolate the spots in the lumbar facet joints and arthropathy places where they need to try to kill off the nerve by radiofrequency burnout.

I got 4 radiofrequency treatments to the right lumbar L2, L3, L4, L5 this morning to help there; then in 2 weeks I get the left lumbar spots done.

So, I'm feeling good now; I hope it continues. Forever would be nice.  We'll let it heal for a few days.
