Vickie,

I NEVER allow injections anymore as they cause scarring and I don't

need anymore. I was told that this scarring was caused by the

injections and there is no way they can do anything about it. This

scarring has caused me many problems and I learned a huge lesson. The

doctors that did my injections " pain management doctors " are

anestheologists and when they couldn't inject me anymore because of the

scarring, they said we can't do anything else for you.

The complications are in writing but the doctors verbally downplay them

and say they are " rare " when it is a common occurance and injection

medicine is erosive to tissue and spinal nerves.

Just my story. Be really cautious.
