This pi is for nerve damage & extreme pain after revision (and ablation)."i had the ablation done in (b)(6) 2022.For some reason, my records only show that i went for a follow up appointment after the ablation.It didn¿t help.I also had spinal injections done as i was told that the pain in my knee was caused by a nerve in my lower back.After the 2 injections in my left lower hip/back, i experienced excruciating pain in the injection area along with severe thigh, calf, ankle, feet and hand cramping that still happens.The doctor wanted to do more injections and i refused.I told them that they caused me more pain and discomfort than i already had and i was not going to have any more.".
