Well the pain clinic wasn't too bad. He only gave me a wee examination as I about hit the roof. He got the pain spots Bang on!
Conclusion. In about 4 weeks time i'm going to have steroid injections into my lower spine. I'll get a local anisthetic first. I'll lie face down under an ex ray machine and "be done". As I'm on opates already he can tweek about with them. Although as I'm so young (hehe) it means I'll be on really heavy duty opates when I'm old

He recons he can improve my pain by 30 to 50 per cent

He's fully booked for the next two weeks then off for two weeks then I'll be in! In a way I'm really chuffed but in another a bit afraid.
