Radiofrequency Ablation for Neck Pain: Anyone Else Tried It?

Im getting a radiofrequency ablation (RFA) on my neck this coming Thursday to try and help and neck pain and radiating headaches and shoulder pain, etc. has anyone else gotten this procedure? What was your experience like with it? How did you feel afterwards? Was it successful in treating your pain?

It helped me a great deal. Mine lasted 2 years. The biggest downfall is all the insurance requirements and what you have to go through to get approved. I had to get 6 injections twice before insurance would pay for mine.

two years?? I was told it would only last six months
