My husband had this injection on 1-22-99. He is going back for another one in a week . The first injection did not take all of the pain away but it did make a significant difference.He has been chronic for about 8 months now and he woke up 2 mornings in a row without any pain . It hasn't lasted, but we are hoping that repeated injections will make a differnce.The proceedure only lasted a few minutes and my husband said he didn't feel any pain. They gave him something to relax him through IV,and he had to wait for it to wear off ,but the actual proceedure didn't take any time at all. I hope this injection helps your father , please keep us posted.
