Reccomended back treatment

Post by albertajune »

I saw a consultant this morning to get my scan result. The problem is nerve damage of the lower spine and he suggested that I might benefit from an epidural to relieve the pain.
The read up on it makes me realise that at a pre clinic, I will have to ask a few questions. Has anyone had or know anyone who has had this procedure and did it work?
I do understand that it's not permanent and may need doing again.
Both my hips were replaced using the epidural method of anaesthetic and I was fine with that so it may not be as bad as it sounds.
I am now a widow and live with my memories.
