Jake... great news about getting some relief from the injection. Some docs schedule them as a series... 2 or 3 indections, maybe 10 days - 3 weeks apart. I've never understood why they'll do a 3rd injection in a patient with no relief from the first 2, but I do believe that getting another injection while you are still experiencing relief from the previous injection increases the chance of getting long term relief. If you are one of the lucky folks that gets good relief... if you got some relief from the first one, you may get even more by doing a series. (Kind of like hitting a fire with second hose before the first one runs out - as opposed to letting it run out and letting the fire build up again before restarting the water.)
Have a great holiday!
All the best,
Mark
