It took longer than any other recovery period, but SI is finally pain-free. It's been over a week since I last noticed any pain coming from SI. Whew. That was a tough one. I didn't want to jump on a repeat procedure the minute I started hurting again from the previous one (as in: the nerve has regenerated), but I obviously waited too long this time. By the time I scheduled it, it was pain 24/7. Note to self: after 2 weeks, schedule the repeat. And only 0.75hrs of OT for the past 2 week pay period! Down from 24hrs of OT before that! And hubby is still complaining about his procedure still hurting. I warned him it wasn't like anything else he's had done (epidurals).
