YES! PC did blood tests & said I had no inflammation. Hmmm, funny, the MRI clearly states end plate of cervical spine shows active inflammation, causing pain. I was told yesterday, by my pain mngmnt Dr. that they just don't know what to do with me. Offered another nerve block( in which the first 2, gave me NO relief) then an ablation occurred. Again, NO relief. Went in crying because I was in sooo much pain and she upped dose of pain meds and an emergency epidural. 6 weeks later, here I am, in the same position I was a yr and a half ago, procedure after procedure, and still no mobility in my neck, severe pain all day long and am back to square 1. My heart goes out to you. Do as much research as you can, because you know your body and what you are going through, more than anyone else. I think the key, is finding the right Dr. ( which I have been unable to do so far) who has experience in ALL of the symptoms you are going through. Hang in there! 🙏🙏🙏
