Crap would not spend €1 as the nerves recover and pain comes back…..pure nonsense unless they will cut the nerve it’s pure bs

Really appreciate you - I have watched SO many of these videos and yours calmed me the most and was really in-depth

Omg thank God for suboxone

25s or 45s?

I switched on my own, guessing at levels and time ect. I messed up bad. 3 days of pure torture, puking sweating, feelings of confusion. It took a week to level out and 4 years later my pain is still manageable. Don't do this on your own.

Is he kidding? Wait till they findout what stopping bup is like. Bullshit.

thank you for this information

Don’t buy a word of this. Butrans patch is made by the creators of OxyCotin. This push is just like the push for Oxy. I went on the patch and I admit it worked. (No shocker it’s an opiod) but wearing a 24/7 day patch disrupts your endocrine system severely. I believe it causes brain damage. Coming off only a 5mcg patch for 5 months was BRUTAL. Now all pain is back and I welcome it just as long as I’m off this poison. I’d rather end up in a wheelchair than EVER put another patch on. So FU to these drug pushers

I had on both trials of over 85%, relief which is passable. Medicare has rejected me for no reason. So, II I can't get the Lumbar Radiofrequency Ablation only a few days before procedure. I met all the requirements. I told Medicare that my pain management doctor has been doing this for years., I double checked the paperwork, They were giving me the run ,around, Finally got another department who can go over their heads the person is a Level 3. I should hear this morning. They will expedite the order, so it can be done faster. Today was the procedure. I waited over 6 months. Reading the letter I got a immediately 10++++++ for pain. I then got very depressed like I wanted to commit suicide or kill someone which I had no intentions.. I went to Emergency, I can walk little in a walker, so I used a wheelchair. They gave me a morphine shot, which bought the pain down to a 6 and lessen my depression. After 2 days pain and depression is coming back. Medicare knows. I have a home care doctor coming today at 3PM. I might be going to the hospital for 3 days then to Rehab until everyone gets their act together. I can't trust being home, there is only my wife. Last year, I had 5 times I could not get up went to 4 different hospitals. This should have been treated as a em3ergncy, while waiting for 20 surgeons told me I needed to go to the Cleveland Clinic main campus. I have scoliosis that is a right curve that is lateral which rotates like a snake. L3-L5 are pinched and can't' operate. Eventually I will be bed ridden...

I had this done for the 2nd time. 1st went great. This time I'm in pretty severe pain. Can complications happen? I don't even know what could be causing this pain.

Bupenorphine is not good. I was on it for years. Truly robs you of your happiness and soul. And it really sucks to come off of. Takes 30 days about to detox plus the after effects linger for months. Some people need pain management I get it but Bupenorphine is not the answer. It’s just a cash grab at the end of the day and it’s literally just like putting heroin and morphine into your body the first few days but then you will feel nothing but emptiness and sadness as long as Bupenorphine is latched onto your receptors.

This is narcotic. What are you talking about? It’s just a half antagonist retards.

No, I will not take buprenorphine for pain you will not replace my traditional opiates with buprenorphine that shit is ridiculous

I had the MBB done on Wednesday. The first day, can't really say if I had any pain relief. The next day, I did feel some relief and today is Friday and I still feel some relief and today was my follow up with the doctor. Was told that if I didn't feel relief within 4 hours on the day of the first MBB, then probably not going to work for me. Was told that it would be unusual for the numbing agent to last this long. In the video, the doctor says the MBB could last hours, days, weeks. I'm confused now.

Lies ,all lies ,its not better than morphine, they are lieing 2 u

How about constipation?

Thank You So Much for taking you The time in your schedule to make this video 😁 You Explained the Procedure so well. If it works for a certain amount of time, Can RFA be done again? You're Amazing God Bless!!

You're not actually injecting the facet though, right? You're injecting the nerve that innervates that facet joint, correct?

am scheduled to have my 2nd Medial Branch Block on June 3rd, 2024, my first one I got good results , after doing the pain score for the first 6 hours after it, I had a 90% relief from pain! So I am in hopes will get the same relief on my 2nd Medial Branch Block so I can have the the RFA procedure done ! My pain is lower back, I do have some arthritis also my pain doctor says, sometimes I have the worst pain on my left side which is where the doctor sees the arthritis. I am a 67 year old woman from N.C.

Ddd is a term insurance companies love so they don’t have to pay.

Buprenorphine is garbage, I was on it , it caused an increase in back pain , caused my arms pain , it causes constipation so bad it was impacted, and makes your teeth fall out

It's an overrated drug. The side effects of this so called Medication Assisted Treatment are not highlighted enough and really cause further complications. The only advice you're given is drink more fluids eat more fibre which of course does not help or deal with the side effects. Constipation, Severe Headaches, Insomnia and Muscle Aches just to name the main side effects but of course when they are ongoing they lead to other health issues but seeing as it's a relatively new medication the side effects are not highlighted but do the research and you'll see what I mean. You are advised if they persist or get worse then inform you're doctor who of course because it's new tells you to drink, eat fibre, etc etc. Give it a couple of years. These side effects will lead to the domino effect where they lead to complications. It will happen.

I was prescribed the patches in 2012 . My pain was day and night difference. It went from a “ migraine” to a slight “ headache.” That’s how I describe the pain level 2/10. Unfortunately I had no insurance but my daughter picked up the $400 tab for me. Needless to say, I haven’t had the option of the patches again.

Seems like the video you see now about what oxy did and how great they where and so on just with subs now there are side effects it’s just as addicting/ you need it to not withdrawal and I can keep going and going … seems like if someone don’t no this med and they go off this video it’s kinda mis leading. A little… granted it may help but you do need it just like and other opioid !

Didn’t work for me. My Doctor has been very stingy with the dosage after 3 years, it just doesn’t seem to work at all. Moist heat is the only help. Thermocare heat wraps, expensive, but I’ll happily buy them!

Mmm I’ve tried this and had a very bad reaction to this med. I have pain caused by Post Herpetic Neuralgia (from shingles), and tried the patch, slow release, and at the 15 and 20 mark, (after being commenced at 5 micrograms per hour) I had a bad reaction: brain fog, itching, hives. No respiratory problems though and when I visited the doctor in person my blood pressure was perfect. In retrospect, as I had no idea that my reaction was my meds in the first instance and I was too busy throwing up to go to my doctor I did not realise my patch at 15 was the problem. So at the next dose (20) i had complete brain fog exacerbated by a melt down over a temporary inability to find a lost document. Over the two/ three week duration I lost 21 pounds and have missing days in writing my journal. I did have only some relief of pain. My next choice is oxycodone which I hesitate to take.

I was on this drug in the form of a skin patch that slowly releases over 7 days,fantastic pain relief 24/7 but after nearly 2 years I began to get an allergy to the adhesive used on the patch so I had to discontinue the usage. I wish they made it in a tablet form here in Australia.

I use Methadone for chronic pain. It saved my life.

❤he’s amazing!!!! I go at the end of the month for this

Piss off.. It's just one drug for another.. That the same companies just happen to make.

The first lady is a liar, they don't make oxycontin 25 or 45

Why is it 90 seconds, not 80? My doctor only burned the nerve for 80 seconds .

So this woman started on OxyContin at dosages that don’t exist. I’ll bet she’s better now because the imaginary stuff she took probably wasn’t effective

Worked great for six months then extreme nausea set in. Bummer

Suboxone is coming before the courts for its side effects, teeth enamel destroyed, little pain relief, difficult to come off. Stay away from Suboxone.

After you get RFA do you need to have the injection diagnostics again once the RFA wears off? Or can you just get the RFA again?

Bupe is only suppose to be for opiod withdrawl. It is nit for pain use. Withdrawl from it is horrific. Opiods are much safer. I can't believe this is allowed.

Depends on the area or the nerves. Same thing happens when you take over the counter pain relievers… temporary and hopefully long term

Stay away from bupe!!!!!!

Buprenorphine is an opiod ,40 x times stronger than morphine 😅

I have them both I'm assuming my pain is from both

Its like oxys you have to wean off it. Your trading one for another. Not everyones body works the same so

Doctors are forced to give pain patients suboxone... why? Cause they want you off narcotics and this patch gets you off AND biggest thing is, its NOW on your permanent record you took suboxone. This is a red flag to every provider that you're an addict.

My pain doctor is putting me on this I got a ?? About it if you're allergic to morphine can you take it still

Miracle drug are you nuts I just withdrawal from subutex after being on it for twenty years it was hell on earth coming off won’t wish it on my worst nightmare DONT STAY ON LONG TERM YOU MOST LIKELY BE ON IT FOR LIFE WAS HARDEST THING TO GET OFF THE HALF LIFE SO LONG SO ACUTE WITHDRAWAL LASTS AROUND 14 DAYS PLUS

My PCP just suggested this, but I have to see my pain management Doctor next week, and see if she's on board. I can't keep going like this. To prevent having to go up in pain meds, I've been supplementing with Kratom which is its own beast. I'm really hopeful I can do this.

theres some patient experiencing 5/10 pain during wisdom tooth removal. what happen if you experiencing pain but you are under iv sedation. how does iv sedation helps if theres a pain during tooth extraction

What medicine is used in this type of sedation?

I just had conscious sedation done today for 2 teeth and let me tell you, I have TERRIBLE anxiety… when i arrived and sat in the chair I was shaking I was so scared but when they put in the IV in my arm and injected the sedation drug, i INSTANTLY felt it kick in and i don’t even remember going to sleep! It felt like i dosed off for a few minutes and woke up and it was all done!!! No pain either!!! Great and effective way of surgery 100/10 guys, don’t worry at all 😁😁😁

question for Dr Suderman: in ASC surgery, some physicians use a disc release, which may cause an accelerated degeneration. Can the disc regenerate itself at a young age (20)? Is there anything to do (therapy., sports) to ease the pain of degeneration?
