Hi I have got a nerve pain in my left leg (calf) I have suffered for many years consultants all say an unexplained nerve pain, just take pain killers and rub on creams which have no effect , I have thrown money at this without success , I have had 3 R/F procedures first one gave me relief for 9 months, second did not work no relief at all. the third one I had 2 months ago pain free for 5 weeks only, any advise would be very welcome

Hi there

I had R/F 2 years running on l5/S1 back pain. Like you the first worked for 9 months and the 2nd only caused more pain with no relief at all. Had to have a steroid injection to settle things down! Now they are trying to talk me into it again and i'm scared stiff. I can't directly help but i've had a similar experience and don't know what to do myself
