Radiofrequency Ablation--Why two weeks apart? How long is recovery?

By GJ Monday, January 31, 2011

I'm scheduled to have radiofrequency ablation on my neck (c2-c3) on Feb. 11 for the right side and Feb 25 for the 2nd side.  My doctor said doing both sides at once can cause vertigo, but the office staff said it was for insurance reasons.  Is there REALLY a good reason for spreading it apart by two weeks?

 

2nd question: How long can I expect for recovery?

Thanks!
