That's what I'm taking right now to quit smoking
the testing is where they shoot a numbing agent into my facet joints and if it relieves the pain then they can kill those nerves (they will eventually grow back) hopefully ridding me of pain. It went so so. I'm in less pain but not pain free, so i'm not sure how it's going to be handled. The past week my neck hurts so bad it's hard to focus on my back pain anyhow. I'm in misery right now.
Sugar? Hell no...Splenda! and it was splendiferous.
