I had the epidural and it helped with the pain I was having on the left side and now I can feel the pain on the right side.
For the last couple of days WHenever I move a certain way I get a crushing pain just to the right of the base of my spine and the pain is horrible. It passes in under a minute but it will come back if I don't sit just right and is there as a dull pain all day. The pain will drive me to my knees. Does it radiate? No. Not that I've noticed because it hurts too bad. My knee is a little stiff. I can't lift anything over 10 pounds without setting it off again. Fortunately I have my annual internal medicine guy today to renew my prescriptions. So him, my neurologist or the guy who did my epidural?

I would think it would have to be the guy that did your epidural. I don't see how the others can help. sorry this is so late. Hugs, Lee
