Default Second Epidural Injection(s)

The first injections at the end of July worked only for a few days and then the pain came back as severe as before.
The second round of injections seems to have effectively decreased the pain levels 95% by the end of the first week.
These injections were for sciatic pain due to arthritis in the L3- L4 area, not neuropathic pain
But my levels of pain and discomfort have been significantly decreased.
Just one less thing/problem to worry about
