Angry judithjewitt
Hi. I had a very bad car accident 18 months ago which has left me with multiple degenerative disc disease, L5S1 sciatica, and a shoulder problem for which I have had three steriod injections and another one soon.
I have just had a nerve route injection today, which was very uncomfortable, and scary, and does not seem to have done any good. I feel in just as much pain as I did when I went in to hospital, and now my leg feels very heavy, and the pain has got much worse.
Just wondered what other members may have experienced with this procedure.

I don't know whether your doc or a nurse may have mentioned this, yet, as with all (that I know of) procedures, there can be a temporary worsening of symptoms, which can take some time/days to dissipate.
