      Oh ok. A nerve block. They go in and inject pain medication in your spine where the issue is

      I have. My L4/L5 and C5/C6 ruptured at the same time in 2010. I had to have lumbar surgery 3 times. So I put off having neck surgery for over 10 years. It got to the point where no doctor could/would help me :(

          @dooby Unfortunately things got so bad for me that I had neck surgery last July and then thoracic surgery on my T2/T3 in November. My pain got to a point where I had to have pain medication. I couldn’t live without it. Physical therapy didn’t help, blocks didn’t help, etc.
