Having suffered from low back pain, gradually getting worse over the last 26 years, I have had lumbar facet joint injections 3 days ago. I feel like a miracle has happened! I am pain free for the first time since I was about 24 years old. I have gone to sleep, remained asleep and woken up without pain. I can get up out of bed without having to think about how I'm going to manoeuvre myself around to get myself up. Sitting still is much easier and I can climb the stairs without difficulty. It's amazing. Thank you soooo much to my physiotherapist who read my notes from my MRI scan, and examined me thoroughly to diagnose that I have a problem. Thank you for taking the time to listen to me. Thank you to the Dr who performed the procedure. He made me feel at ease, along with the anaethesist and nurses. I'm truly grateful and looking forward to coming back to see you all again.
