Default 4 level Bilateral Cervical Rhizatomy

I had a 4 level bilateral Cervical Rhizotomy, C3,4,5,6, almost a week ago! These eight nerves are really pissed off and screaming! I'm having a difficult time dealing with the pain! I pleaded with my doc to give me something to take the edge off! I was surprised he gave me a prescription because my docs don't seem to give out pain meds. In the last couple months, I've had two Medial Nerve Blocks and the Rhizatomy, in hopes to be pain free. Does the pain really go away or am I just fooling myself to think I'll be pain free? Anyone know the percentage of this procedure working? My doc has only given me 10 days worth of pain meds. I really doubt he'll refill the prescription!
