Hi, after nerve blocks didn't help me at all my pain doctor suggested radio frequency denervation, she didn't explain much and Google is a scary place, has anyone had this? if so what was your experience?

Mine will be L4/L5 both left and right sides.

    Hi @Clare75, sorry to hear your nerve blocks didn't help. I'm afraid I don't have experience of this myself, but I hope one of our members might see this post and share their experiences soon.

    In the mean time do you think you could get back in touch with your pain doctor to ask some questions? I'm sure they'd be able to explain a bit more about what it involves and the outcomes of some previous patients.

    Hope you're able to get some clarification soon!
