Could HALO Ablations Leads To Back Pain ?

I had three Halo Ablations in 2013, I have been having back pain in my upper pain that goes through to my chest. My question is could this pain be from the HALO procedures, or do you think it is caused from something else? I can t lay down for very long at a time, so therefore I am not sleeping well.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

There is a possibility that the HALO procedure is causing the trouble by causing some probable internal inflammation. This inflammation may be affecting the nerves in the body and the back. The inflamed nerve may further cause pain.

I would suggest that you meet your treating doctor for a prescription of methylcobalamin and folate

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above/if any other so I can be of help further.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.
