If you go the injection route, be very careful. I've had two from two different medical pain doctors, and even though I was on the scope in both instances, both put holes in my spinal cord, causing spinal fluid leakage. In each instance, it put me in the hospital with the most excruciating pain known to man; I'm not kidding you there. You can't move, and the spinal headache will drop you like a sack of bricks. I had to have a blood patch in both cases to stop the leakage. Both of these 'pain' experts had over 30 years in their practice.
Never, never, again....
