Scaroiliac Joint Injections

Can someone please tell me if this was painful?

[RobertVerde]

I had one a few days ago - Monday - July 6th - not painful at all - still waiting for it to kick in.

Thanks so much. I had 2 in my spine. Now this one next 😫

[RobertVerde in reply to Lovelylovey]

Its no fun - I have had 5 back surgeries so far - now the SI is starting to act up.

Who knows where this one will lead. Been a long road but somewhat optimistic.

[Lovelylovey in reply to RobertVerde]

Do you regret the surgeries?

[RobertVerde in reply to Lovelylovey]

I had no choice in each one - I was not able to function - quality of life issue - what I do regret was beating up my body when I was younger. I would have been more careful had I known what was coming down the line as a result.

Thank you 🙏🏾 so much! Makes a lot of sense. I think I’m at that breaking point 10 hour warehouse iobs constant bending lifting some days I walk 32,000 steps. After my infertility it’s like my body just got tired I’m 30 and have fluid filled sacks pressing against my nerves so painful

[RobertVerde in reply to Lovelylovey]

OK - good luck!

I did not find them to be painful. They weren’t helpful for me. My pain is mostly during the night and when first waking. I find that if I ball up my fists and press firmly around the SI area, I can get it to settle down.

[Lovelylovey in reply to Andilynn]

That’s exactly how I get my pain to supress. I did the shot today but so far no pain relief.

[Andilynn in reply to Lovelylovey]

I hope that you get relief with the shots...many people do. Best wishes!
