Smile Steroid shot

Friday I got my first steroid shot in my spine. I have one completely collapsed disk, two herniated ones, three fused vertebrae in my neck (arnold chiari malformation)
The steroid shot was like a miracle! I had two days no pain in my lower back! Today is the third day, and I have only twinges. I am still having leg spasms while I sleep, but the improvment is immense.
I wonder what took so long for the doctor to think of this?
I'm hoping that this will have a positive effect on my Fibromyalgia. The low back pain was a constant thing and couldn 't have helped the Fibro.
