I've also had it done, it lasted a few months. During that time I was just glad to have some relief for even a sort time.

I've had 3 of them. The first two lasted about 6 months each. They do not completely remove the pain but reduce by probably 80%. This has allowed me to exercise and build up the core muscles in an attempt to nt need the drugs. It is working to some extent.

I had it done 5 weeks ago...and no pain relief at all. Waste of time and money! Now on more opiate....at a loss now!

My friend has had it and she is worse. I know they are going to tell me I should try it but I will say absolutely not!

I have had the RFA twice on my low back, it's not painful, they gave me "awake Sedation" takes about 4 to 6 weeks to take effect, sadly, it didn't work for me, I hope you have good luck with it.
