Hi @jo46. Thanks for reaching out to us.

I haven't had this procedure. I hope someone who has had this procedure will be able to respond to you soon.

In the meantime, is there a particular reason you are interested in hearing about this? Just wondering how we can support you the most effectively

Hello there @jo46 thanks for explaining what happened, it does sound like a scary time. How are things now?

I'm afraid I haven't gone through anything similar, but were you offered any support with the recovery from your lumbar medical branch block test?

Have you been able to speak to anyone, like your GP, about the impact this has had on your mental health?

jo46

No I haven’t I have the doc ring me tomorrow the consultant did ring me Monday as I think there were worried but I find it hard for any body really to listen take it in what your saying xx

How did the phonecall with the doctor go for you @jo46? Only if you wish to share more with us about this, of course.

It is really important that you feel listened to. We are all here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us

Not even had phone call yet hun Tuesday he ringing that’s a week later 🙈 just feel like no body really takes you seriously x

Oh no, sorry @jo46! Should have known better than think you would receive a call that quickly.

Hopefully, your doctor will at least listen to you. You deserve to be taken seriously and receive what you need

Hello
I think you meant to say 'Medial' BB test ? Maybe that will be better for others to help you with the question . TC ok
