I've never had any relief from these injections either and I agree they can cause more damage than good. if ONE doesn't work do NOT let them do ANY MORE. Any subsequent injections will NOT WORK if the first one didn't so you're risking a whole lot of trouble by going ahead with more injections. Tell the doc NO if he wants to do more. Just don't let him. Arachnoiditis is a very REAL possibility and it's INCURABLE.
Best of luck and God bless. Hugs, Lee
