ESI Scheduled on Monday Oct 26th

Try not to be too nervous. It is not a pleasant procedure but it is over quickly and hopefully the results will be well worth having it done. Try and focus on the positive results that you hope to achieve rather than how uncomfortable the procedure might be. Good luck and keep us posted.
