Thanks for the reply, I just wanted to hear someones experience on this. Now that you mention that yours was a four day, I don't think mine will be much more than that. I must have been adding the travel days as well. I am sorry to hear you had no lasting effects. May I ask where your RSD is? When I had the shot, it was a bit of a test to see if my nerves would respond. Helped a small amount, and I had about a week before the full pain came rushing back. My hope is that a longer, stronger epidural will take that week and stretch it out.
