Hi Erica and Welcome to NeuroTalk. I can relate to your pain, as I'm sitting on the heating pad right now. I have had L4-L5 disc trouble for yr and all it takes, sometimes, is to turn or twist the wrong way.

I have had epidural steroid injections a few times, but they were just a quick fix. I also did PT, which helped. Hope you can find some relief.

Glad to have you w/us.
