Injection may help for a couple of months, not quite a year. My son took the injection to ease pain a couple of years ago, now is learning to live with it along with exercises given.
Hope it helps, each person reacts differently, going under scalpel not always the best option, again it works miracles for some.
For some reason I am one of those difficult ones Lady Joan.
Had a severe problem from a simple cataract op.
Yet, when they took my gall bladder out, I was at work the next day, as Papillon had a board meeting.
So with me it is the luck of the draw.
Hope that you guys will have a good week, even under the circumstances.
