Has anyone had this proceedure done and what was your specific experience?? I believe I had it once before and made it thru the right side of my lower lumbar b-4 I made him stop as the pain was too much 4 me to handle. The terst did not relieve any of my pain. Now the new doc wants to do another one..... I hate that they want to do this stuff to cover their butts with the DEA when it's not what is needed for ur body!!!!!!!!!!! I didnt have any anti-anxiety medicine which is something they're suppose to give u and I was really freaked out from the pain etc.... Maybe if they do it right with the meds etc I'll fare better this time around, because it is a pain clinic and they don't want to continue with the pain meds if ur not willing to allow them to do all the needles etc in ur spine... they call it not participating in the recomended medical treatment plan.......... yikes...... and the last doc that I had wrote many a LIE about my participation and what I said to him to make me look bad and as if I was just there for the medsb4 he dropped me like a hot potato!!!!!

Thanks for any suggestions and experiences!!!
