Hi, my name is Carie!
just new here. Had my wca 2 weeks ago. Already have ADP and New style esa. Been off work since July 25 with chronic pain due to abdominal mesh and mobility issues. I will be getting some nerve burnt in my groin soon too so that sounds fun.

Hi @Carie and welcome to the community! How are you feeling about getting the nerve burnt? Do you know how long recovery will be?

hi. I am actually a bit scared. I had an MRI last week to map the nerves and now just wait for a date. Should be within the month they said. I guess I am just concerned they get the wrong one and it’s attached to something. Silly I know. I’m not sure on recovery time. Not too long I think but just an odd thing to get. I’ve never heard of it.

Hi @Carie welcome to the Community from me too. I hope you enjoy your time on the forum. Any questions just ask.
I hope everything goes well for you when you have the nerve burnt done.
Have a look around and join in when you are ready.
Take care.

It's understandable to be scared. Our brains like to think of the worst case scenario for everything but I'm sure it'll all be fine. I hope recovery isn't too long. Have you got anyone at home to help you whilst you heal?
