    Default Re: Trial of Disc Biacuplasty to Treat Chronic Discogenic Low Back Pain

    i had good results after a biacuplasty at L5/S1 - had just gotten rid of my myofascial pain a few months later when an MVA reinjured my disc apparently though, i am the only pt my dr has who has such a bad recurrent injury - and i am definitely the only one he's done a discogram on after having a biacuplasty. so alas... now i'm looking at surgery.

    fwiw,i wasn't in a trial - had it before the trial started at my dr's site. it's worth a try if you meet the criteria!!! feel free to send me a msg or reply here...
