IF you are in that much pain, call your doctor--the one who did the procedure. They probably gave you some discharge papers when you left the hospital, and it probably has numbers to call. When you have that much pain, it is time to call, even on Sunday, even on Christmas, even at 2 in the morning!

With this cancer, my "rule" for myself is that if I even think of calling or going to the ER, I do it. We have no wiggle room......

I had this procedure done about 2 1/2 years ago and didn't feel that type of pain afterwards. I do feel some discomfort recently and can never get relief. My back feels like it has to "crack" all the time. They did put me on gabapentin to stop the nerve ending. Maybe ask your doctor about that medication before doing another procedure.
