I am currently in day 10 of the procedure and I started to have pain at day 3. It is extremely pain painful. I have struggled at work and have nor been able to sleep. I do not understand how my doctor stated that this procedure is not painful. This is a pain that creeps on up on you. I have tried constant rubbing, exercising, and movement to help with the pain but NOTHING IS WORKING! I thought as the days past that the pain would subside but it hasn't, the pain has only gotten worse. If anyone asks me about this procedure, I would tell them the truth...IT IS PAINFUL!
