Trigger Point Injections - 6 months ACDR Post-Op

I'm looking for others' experiences with injections after ACDR/ACDF. If you could let me know if your surgeon recommended them/you are considering, or if you had them, whether they helped, and if they reduced your need for medications and improved activity tolerance long-term.

I'm 6.5 months post-op from C5/C6 ACDR and still dealing with significant muscle tightness, trigger point pain, spasms, and lingering suboccipital neuralgia despite finishing PT, continuing light exercise, and using medications like Tylenol and Baclofen. Dry needling provided short-term relief and caused spams signaling I have trigger points. My surgeon is recommending trigger point injections (with or without steroids) to help calm the muscles and improve mobility. Thank you!

For context before my disc fully herniated, a facet injection provided about 3 months of relief. After the pain returned and was much worse, I had a failed epidural which ultimately led to surgery.
