HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this was the intrathecal therapy then such pain is very likely and it may go away once the therapy is overs or the time is overs of the pain, but it is the invasive procedure great care needs to be taken even the single complaint needs to be brought to attention of doctor hope this information helps.
