Bardford, My son says it has been wet and windy in your neck of the woods? Can you see Mt. Hood from Stayton? Lon

Debbie Hi, my pain is on the outside of the back as well as deep. The only time it hurts less is when I am medicated. So I understand what you say, some times it doe snot take much!

Tim- I have cancelled my proceedure.
Now why did you do that? I was thrilled to see you were considering this because they're recommending it for my back and I thought I'd wait to see if your's was helpful first. Please reconsider...

Lon, just read your post. I went through the same proceedure with the same symptoms as you many years ago. I went through 3 rounds of injections and at first thought there was some help, but to my dismay I had no luck with this process. When I was having problems in my lower spine I found that the only thing that worked for me for the lower back pain and sciaitca was traditional Chinese accupuncture. Also use Moxibustion if you go this route which helped also. Believe me, I tried everything. My situation is now mainly in my upper spine and neck, etc. PM. <><
