Default Rhizotomy experiences?

Someone asked me about the onset of pain about a week after a rhizotomy. I know that for some people, they are painful and the pain can last for many days or even weeks before relief is realized. However, I don't know about the onset of procedure caused pain a week later. Perhaps some local steroid used as part of the procedure is wearing off? Perhaps, it's unrelated to the rhizotomy?

In any case, I've never had a rhizotomy and can't offer first hand experiences. I'll direct her here... hopefully, she'll come along and introduce herself.

Those who've had rhizo... can you relate to this...

I just had a rhizotomy last Monday (1 week ago) and I thought that I was doing great but yesterday and today it hurts everytime I move. I think it could be the change in the weather. But do you think it is from the injection? I feel it in my butt and legs and it's muscular pain.
Thanks in advance for the help,

Mark
