re: injections

We have had no new reports from people having
injections. Location of injection depends on what the
doctor is trying to achieve & where he thinks the
source of the problem is.

I can summarize the old reports in this way. Most
injections have little effect - doesn't matter if it
is trigger points, steriods, botox. There was one
report of an MRI guided injection a few years ago
that reduced pain for one year. Also, out of all the
people who had botox injections, there was only one
case of improvement.

If you are referring to the super-duper technology
guided injection developed by Dr. Filler, no one has
reported having the procedure or what the outcome was.

If anyone has had this newer type injection procedure
- please let us know the outcome.
