The second injection worked like a charm. I’m waiting for my ablation and then I have an appointment on Monday with EmilyLarson on Monday and I’m gonna have her give me a referral for my occipital nerve because Vurtious Pain Ins told me I need to get my injection done by August otherwise I’m gonna have to find another pain doctor
