Guest guest Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 Hello all: I had radio frequency ablation done on my lumbar facet joints of my left side on December 13. Everything went well. It took about 45 minutes, for 4 different places. It didn't hurt anymore than the normal shots did. I did have spasms off and on for a couple of weeks but feel great now. I did end up in the emergency room the next morning due to fluid build up in my legs and lungs and was diagnosed with borderline CHF but this was probably something that I already had. I have had swelling for months now and my regular doctor has not really paid as much attention to it as I do. I am now on lasix and potassium. I have my right side next Wednesday. Hopefully the new diagnosis and new meds will not stop it. I just wanted to let everyone know that so far it has worked for me, which is great news.
