Hi Eraser, After going through PNE, I could never judge someone else if they couldn't take it anymore and had to end their life because the pain was so bad. I can't say for sure that someone who does is going to go to hell. I think it makes sense not to commit suicide if you haven't tried all of yo...

I am not particularly religious and probably have a different perspective on suicide and faith. I cannot pretend that I will ever understand chronic suffering, as to me it does not have a purpose. I also believe euthanasia should be a human right, so I cannot understand the notion of going to hell f...

I see many posts in the past with no recent updates on how they are doing or what is going on. I see people have persevered for years. I don’t think I will be able to afford or get the surgery. Do people stop coming because of despair? I hope suicide is not the final solution. My faith says suicide...

Yeah, I like it because it covers a lot of different options in one article. I don't really understand why they recommend it either. I think the problem with chronic pain management in general as that they recommend a number of interventions generally but unfortunately very few have proven benefit o...

Hi Violet, yes I was thinking of PN. I think for musculoskeletal problems it probably has some value. I find it interesting that it is still recommended for PN despite the lack of evidence. I think this paragraph sums it very nicely: - " Despite the absence of studies , the working group recomm...

If you have a true nerve entrapment you have to be careful with any type of exercise or stretching because if the nerve can't glide normally, it can really flare up your pain and damage the nerve further. At least that's how it was for me until I had the nerve released. Violet I completely agree an...

Well I really hope they sort it out for you soon! I am still improving, almost month three. I am starting to think what I do when I hope this all comes to an end.

Hi Violet, Ten months after RFA It’s still affecting my sciatic nerve. I can hardly walk any more. I have an appointment for an orthopedic evaluation this month. I will definitely ask about the TENs unit also having a muscoskeletal ultrasound of the hip area. No amount of sticking needles or PT wil...

Thanks for sharing these experiences. It’s helpful to hear how different people responded to nerve blocks and cryoablation, especially since the results seem to vary from person to person. I agree that getting clear information about the exact nerve being targeted, expected benefits, risks, and pos...

Hi jon, I am curious where you're getting the information, as I couldn't find information that suggested Ciprofloxacin would worsen pudendal neuralgia but I've only had a brief look. In terms of pulsed radiofrequency treatment for pudendal neuralgia whilst there are theories, they don't actually kno...
