                        Although you posted your note a couple of months ago, just wanted to let you know my mom had the same problem.  Her Dr. sedated her enough to where she didn't care.  The downside was, I had to get her from the MRI home.  She was very out of it and it took both my brother and I to get her in the house.  The good side was, she had the best night sleep in weeks.    I hope you have found some relief to your pain.  My mom ended up with an epidural and accupuncture.
