The whole of 10 minutes ! I just had to tell him about my health and what meds I'm on and have tried then he said would I like an appointment with group to discuss my options which I said yes and then he said he think I would benifit from injections thru a drip so will get appointment for that too and that was it x

hi just reading your post and was wondering where your pain is as i have been to the pain clinic twice for severe thigh pain had nerve BLock injections and a lidocaine infusion through drip in hand (very powerful ive since been told ) im not being negative as we are all differant but i have just been told by my physio that my severe pain is mostly being caused by a tilted pelvis just a thought hope your treatment works for you just wanted to put it out there as ive been treated for fibro for over 10 years and only just found this out ,take care joanne x
