Trigger Point Injections for Fibro

Post a new topicby ddeeva on Fri May 29, 2009 8:41 am

Does anyone know a Dr in Georgia who does TPI?
I had a Dr over 15 yrs ago, (he's no longer around) give me TPI when I was at my worst. They help tremendously, since I no longer sit at a desk all day & work on a computer, I have much less problems with the Fibro. I get Massage evry 3-4 wks faithfully, do stretching & yoga & drink lots of water.
I also found a supplement at GNC which I find helpful.
I am having shoulder surgery in 2 wk, (again), & will be in sling 6wks. From experience, I know my upper back & shoulders will be in knots for weeks. If anyone knows a Dr who does TPI, please let me know.

Thanks

Have you found a doctor yet? I live near Marietta and received my first TPI today. Unfortunately didn't help much, but if you are near here and would like his name, etc, just give me a shout.
Thanks.
