Love those needles...

I had eight lumbar facet joint injections, 4 on both sides today. Will be getting cervical injections in a couple of weeks, and potentially 2 injections in T7 and T8.

I am hoping to love these injections if they work this time.

Note to self: they will work, they will work, they will work!

I have been waiting since feb last year. I am supposed to have them evety 6 months cetvical and then lumber. But its an endless waiting game and lottery here since the pain clinic was privatised. I now have an appointment the 13th may its a sunday after ringing and asking about the delay. Good luck with yours i hope they work for you.
