New here, hope I can get some help from you people. I have had two neck operations, and still have pain everywhere. Neck, shoulders, arm, forearms, numbness, pins and needles. Actually it doesnt even seem like I had the operations becaused the same symptoms are all still there. I was wondering if there are any other types of injections besides the steriod injections? My surgeon is too busy to answer any questions, he has his PA's do that, and personally I think his PA's are nothing more then RN's, if that, knowledge wise. Any help would be great. I know I should really push this surgeon to get the answers I need, but actually I would rather change surgeons at this point rather then fighting him for information. I think on the next visit I am just going to ask to be sent to a pain management doctor. Enough is enough with the operations that do not relieve any pain. Thanks and sorry for complaining on my first post.
