You might be thinking I could try again, but I knew immediately: if this is the lowest setting, I can't go any further. The doctor said, if I continued, we would need to up the strength to at least 20 times as strong. No. No way. I walked out. Surprisingly, they refunded the cost. I immediately called the spine surgeon who had ordered this test done in the first place. His assistant picked up and I talked to her. I told her what had happened and that I did not know if my neck injections were scheduled yet. She said for th
