Re: Question from newbie
Houston, Antolak, Hibner -- I think most of the PN docs do. There probably are some in Colorado who do. You could check with interventional radiologists in your area.
PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.

Carolynn,
Hi, I am not on the forum much anymore, but I am from Colorado and I have a great D.O. / Pain doctor who has done injections on me. He has done internal trigger point injections on me so many times I can't count (with lidocaine, marcaine, and steroids at times). Thankfully I have not needed them in a year (my OI finally stopped spasming).
I believe he does guided blocks as well. Let me know if you would like his contact information - he has an office in Englewood and Fort Collins and he is very professional and has great bedside manner.

Surgery with Dr. Hibner, July 2007 - 95% improved.

Aug-06: PNE as a result of 15+ years of weightlifting (32 years of age)
Apr 07: Evaluation/PNMLT in Houston
Aug 07: Surgery with Dr. Hibner -- I was his 20th patient (approx).
I consider myself to be 90 - 95 % improved. The only thing I can no longer do is exercise strenuously - that is OK with me!!
I can walk for exercise, hike, and use the elliptical -- all very carefully of course.

Re: Question from newbie
Chloe,
Thank you for your response. Since I asked the qu originally I have had an MRI from Potter and consult w/Hibner.
He is such an amazing man.
Congratulations on your recovery. I hope you stay on the site and encourage some of us who are struggling. We so appreciate having the support.
