Last year I started having a lot of leg pain. I thought I had pulled a muscle. Then the pain started to move around and my Doctor told me it was nerve pain. I had an MRI and I have several issues with my back but what is causing the most pain is arthritis pressing on nerves. I have had 2 epidural shots in my back and I have to have one more before I can have Radio Frequency Ablation. This will deaden the nerves for 6 months to a year. I have had trouble with my insurance company and have been held up getting the next shot. I am starting a new job in 3 weeks and will have better insurance. This job requires a lot of standing and walking. Please pray that the leg pain will not come back before I can get my next shot. I really need things to go well on this job. Please pray that I get the treatment I need, that I'm pain free and that I do well at my new job. My name is Randy. I believe in the power of prayer and I appreciate everyone that prays for me. Thank you
It can take 10 days to 3 weeks for RFA to work. Yesterday was 10 days and the leg pain just disappeared. Even on good days I was limping but now I’m pain free praise God.

Mine is nerve pain. The problem is in my back but the pain is in my leg.
RFA is radio frequency ablation. Basically it kills the nerves that are causing the pain. It takes 6 months to a year for the nerves to come back.

The RFA was a tremendous help and the injection that I got in my knee is still working. I’ve lost 50 pounds and the job is going well.
What is RFA? Good to hear your job is going well. Been here at new job for 3 weeks or so now, almost a month. Has a lot of walking, I might need to invest in health insurance, just in case. Did your health insurance help?

Yes this job provides better health insurance than my last one. One of the benefits of working at a very large hospital. RFA is radio frequency ablation. It kills the nerves that are causing the pain and it takes 6 months to a year for the nerves to come back.

I got the results of my MRI today. There is a 65% chance that I have prostate cancer. I have a biopsy on the 12th.
Even if I have cancer I am going to workout and reach my goal of losing 100 pounds. I am halfway there now.
Praying for you brother, God is so good!

It had better not be what i think it is . where they go in through the colon and stab through the wall
and into the prostrate . Men have been hosplitalized because of it .
I had rather just be put on something to slow it down or just say REMOVE the thing than to go through that mess .

Praying for you! Great job losing weight and staying on course. Have you considered doing a carnivore diet with extended fasts? I have been on a carnivore diet for 3 months and it is helping slowly heal some injuries in my body. And I've heard testimonies of healing stage 4 cancer with this method (high quality protein and fats+zero carbs+extended fasts).
