" Desi,..is the nerve burning you are referring to called "radio frequency ablation"? I had this done, and I didnt think it helped much, and by no means is it a permament solution. I had a total of 8 or 9 nerves deadened in my spine in March....and in less than 2 months I couldnt tell that I even had anything done. The dr at the time I had this done, did tell me in time the nerves, may heal themselves back to where I was before, but my pain was so severe I had to at least give it a shot. I did look up the term 'radio frequency ablation" to find out this was true, they do heal, and it doesnt last forever. In the long run, it cost me about 2 thousand dollars...I feel FOR NOTHING!.. Do some research on this, and really give it more thought...maybe it will work for you...but it didnt for me. I wish you all the luck, I hope you get some relief.
