Thumbs up Anyone Here Had An Epidural Injection?

Yes, just yesterday 8/5/09 at L5 for lumbar pain radiating to legs, i.e., spinal stenosis.

Procedure: On stomach, betadine'd, lidocaine'd, injection of 40mg Kenalog corticosteroid. Took 10 minutes.

It's just one day post-injection and I feel *so much better*.

Follow up w/anesthesiologist pain mgmt doc on 9/1 to discuss whether or not further injections may be helpful as well as additional PT.

Feeling damn good today.

HTH
