It is certainly a pesky thing. So you have my sympathy. I had it for years... and if Lidoderms hadn't come along, I'd still have that shooting stabbing thing probably!

You should look at our PN forum where I have detailed information on supplements to enable nerve healing. My own successes may be in part due to my aggressive use of nutrients known to heal and support nerve functions. When something gets damaged, if there are few repair substances around, it doesn't heal well or at all.

Ok well, I was wrong...my MRI of the back did show something. I have a buldging disk that is buldging to the left of my body (which is the leg affected) and I also have an annular tear. They are going to begin cortizone shots into the back and the lateral femorial cutaous nerve in the leg
The buldging disk is at L5 and the annular tear is L4-5.

I hope that works for you.

I've never had a steroid in the back. Other places, tho, and they always worked for me.

It can take a while for a spine injury to heal. I hope you are substituting another form of exercise and cutting back on the running for now.

Keep us up to date... on how this works for you.

Thank you!
They are going to do 2 injections, one for the LFCN in front of my hip/pelvis area and 1 in the back on the left side. I hope I get some relief and yes, I have stopped running!
