I'm not sure if it was supposed to be "trigger-point", just supposed to be the location of greatest pain.
mine were at the site of the most pain... hurt like a sonofobitch, too.
Was there anything else you could try at that point? i think we tried lidocane patches (Ooo, those are weird!), PT using phonophresis and cross-friction, and a round of prednisone. That doc has decided his bag of tricks is empty now, and i was supposed to go to an orthopedic surgeon, but with my insurance running out in 9 days, i'm gonna have to pass on that for now.
Now, I bet it's five figures.
definitely. havign my gallbladder out was about $15k, of which i had to pay about half. outpatient might be slightly cheaper, but probably not much ~ i forget everything's more expensive where you live.
