Shebo, the relief I got from the ablation was minor. I have slightly less pain, so I function slightly higher with less meds. Unfortunately, the problem that easily sends me to a 9 was not addressed by the ablations. We identified pain generators and dealt with them, but they were NOT the true culprits.

I'm sure you saw my next thread about getting a discogram done at the seemingly bad level... it was negative. We are still scratching our heads.

Good luck... keep us posted,

Mark
