I recently had an SIJ injection & the hospital didn't have a discharge leaflet for that procedure so gave me one for epidural injection & one for facet joint injection. In the epidural leaflet it said you can have "repeat injections (usually up to a maximum of three) to the same area of the back may be given over a six month period". Would that be 6 per year then? In the facet joint leaflet it said "repeat injections (usually up to a maximum of three) are possible. So that's 3 per year. I wonder what the frequency is for SIJ injection? I suspect it may be 3 per year. |
