Anyone have a discogram done? What is the procedure like?

Answer 1

I had this procedure done And it wasn't pleasant. they numb you so you don't feel much pain it's just they probe different nerves in the back and when they do you get all types of different sensations. At one point I had to fight hard to keep from vomiting when they hit one of my nerves. Let's just say you will be happy when it's over. Afterwards I had to apply ice packs to the injections sites to calm the pain. When I got home I felt terrible and just about passed out. I had to have somebody stay with me that night. And it takes about a week for the pain to go down.

I wish I could paint a better picture for you , but this is how it was for me. Be prepared, but it may not affect you as it did me. Everybody is different.
