I had a discogram yesterday on my lumbar spine. They said you will feel some pain and go home and rest for the remainder of the day. I did.. I got up this morning in horrible pain thinking it will subdue.. Not the case. This is the worst pain I've felt in my life. Is it normal to feel this bad afterward and how long does it last? Has anyone had one of these and avoided surgery? I overheard a bit what the dr was saying as he was having the nurse input results. Anyone know about the grading system (1-5) of disc injury?
Thanks!
