Shebo,

With such a positive result, your diagnosis appears confirmed which unto itself, is the biggest relief. Too many others are struggling with the unknown resulting in no clear cut path to pain free days.

I remember, after my injections I had 1 week of no pain. I was so hopeful that after the third round the benefit would last longer allowing me to 'paint a dresser' but all it did was remind me how good life could be but was not. Yes it does increase your desire to hurry whatever comes next because we're reminded what life was like before pain.

You are one of the lucky ones. Here's hoping the next round bears the same result!

Dale
