First LSB is my experience normal.
Still new to this and learning how to use forums. I had a Left LSB and epidural block on wednesday for CRPS in my left foot and sciatica (radiculopathy?) on my Right causing hip, thigh and right foot pain. I believe my MD used bupivicaine as well as steroid for the injections. I was told that I had an 8* increase in temperature on my Left foot. Immediately post procedure my foot looked and felt wonderful, warm and dry,blue discolored area reduced to faint, and no pain (my foot is usually cold and achy). My Right sided symptoms were relieved as well. about 6 hours or so after the procedure I noticed some faint symptoms returning to my R foot although they were minimal. Now today, my foot is again feeling excessively cold with faint tingling although not painful as before. Is this normal so soon after the block? What significance does that have as to the successfulness of the block? Thank you
