Spacers are a pain but I think that's the worst part or the treatment...at least for me.
Good luck!

I know your pain. I had 12 spacers. They are the worst part though. Ibuprofen worked the best for me to kill the pain.

Good luck with your treatment! The pain will get better - the spacers are only temporary! :)
