Hi I was on my stomach. Only light sedation is needed but if you feel any uncomfortable, I'm sure they can give you a little more
.
My neck was sore the rest of day but back to feeling what I call normal the next day. Like I said, it didn't do much for me but was a option by my Dr. The following week I had my non working scs taken out and new one implanted. So it was kinda supposed to get me through my surgery and recovery easier. I'm now receiving cervical injections but those aren't working so helpfully my Dr will have another plan for my neck pain. I also have rsd in my left leg and foot. I hope if you decide, let me know. I'm hoping for the best for you🙂

Hi I hoping you had the procedure and it is helping. I hope your Dr was kind enough to make you comfortable. Needles are never fun and something I know I'll never get used too. Please update me.
Sincerely
