Ya i know that this is something that isnt common. I'm going in to see my doctor in the beginning of January but the pictures from when they did the rhizotomy showed that my facet joint is stuck in that overextended position and basically I have been in terrible pain since late September/early October. I had direct orders to see my doctor asap from my doctor who did the rhizo. He said that it could go back by itself but that I needed to see my doctor.
I'm basically on pain killers all the time b/c of it.
Whatever the medical terminology is for it it sucks! ahha oh well. hopefully one day I wont be in a constant state of pain.
