Yet if i limit my activities my pain becomes more manageable. My right SI joint is aching as I type this so its very possible it has some relatio...

Re: Botox in QLD

Re: Botox in QLD

Going to hopefully see a Dr Lumley at the Wesley in Brisbane. He is the head colorectal surgeon that also does sacral nerve stimulator implants. I would certainly like to try botox first because its less invasive.

I did get some sort of relief from the nerve block but nothing convincing. It seemed to help with my right perenial pain. But failed to make any difference to my left sided pelvic floor pain which is by far the worst of the lot. I am assuming the nerve block was done correctly as everything down the...
