I'm a newbie to this website but wanted to offer you my experience with the Rhyzotomy. I have had two bi-latteral cortisone injections prior to the Rhyzotomy that I had done this past March. Went I went back to the doctor two weeks after having it done, he told me that most people would be wowing saying its the best thing they could have done. I told him I wasn't wowing yet because I was still having pain. My issue was the L4/L5 and night time pain on my right side. Been too many doctors and they all say the same thing...Structurally, I'm fine. So whether or not the Rhyzotomy will work for you is that I would give it a shot (no pun intended). I think mine has helped me a little bit, it just took longer than what my doctors told me it would. Good Luck!
