Hi everyone,
I was diagnosed about a month ago with MG. Trying to get my meds at the right dose. Now my question is, I have been having issues with back and leg pain. My doc ordered a MRI. He is suggesting an epidural for my back pain.
I have known 4 people who have had one, and they all said they wish they wouldn't of had it. My pain goes through my right buttock all the way down my leg into my foot. It is a very intense pain. I go see my doc tomorrow and I am supposed to let him know my decision.
I think I would rather take a pain pill rather than have a needle stuck in my back. Does opiates have a negative effect on MG, does anyone know? I am very nervous about this. I appreciate any input..
Thanks
