In the past I had multiple epidurals, several times a year for many years.

I can't even remember what's what with my spine. I just remember I have 2 herniated and 1 bulging disc in the lower back and 2 bad discs in the neck. I've had steroid injections twice in the cervical area. The most painful shots I've ever experienced.

I had the epidurals for probably 10 years until a new pain clinic doctor suggestsed trying sacroiliac injections instead. Those finally relieved my lower back pain.

But I still have horrible tailbone pain which nobody can seem to figure out. I had an MRI last week and my doc is referring me to a spine doctor to see if someone new can do something. My pain doctor just shrugs his shoulders now and says there is nothing he can do for my tailbone short of the pinpoint injections. If he gets the right spots, they help.
