Twilight sleep, and conscious sedation, are essentially the same thing.

I have had both epidurals and facet injections right in the pain center. The

epidurals were okay...but, the facet injections were painful. The second time I

ask for something and they gave me a valuim. It didn't do anything. I still

felt everything! And, they didn't do a thing for me.

There was one guy one evening heading for the emergency room after his...he was

in severe pain and could hardly walk. They think they hit a nerve that they

shouldn't have. I still can't believe they just let him leave like that. I was

just having trigger point injections that night....whew!!!!

The very first facet injections I had in the hospitol and they put me in

twilight sleep. That was great...then they changed to in office procedure. I

would like the insurance person who made that decision to have it done in a

doctors office and see how fast they change things!!!! Now I just have the left

and right lumbar rhyzotomy and that takes care of it for me.
