Lumbar Epidural Injection For Hip And Leg Pain?????? Posted: 06-11-05 12:23pm
Hello,
has anyone here ever had a lumbar spinal
epidural injection for back, hip or leg
pain? I am scheduled to have one of these
done in 3 days - I am oddly looking
forward to it - and was wondering if
anyone could give me their experience as
to how effective it was?
I have ongoing hip and leg pain from a
childhood hip disorder that I have been
putting up with for quite some time now,
and I am hoping that this injection will
bring about vast improvement. I am
currently 30 years old and in excellent
health. I understand that these
injections are normally given in a series
of 3 - spread out over several weeks or
months apart. Pills haven't helped much
and they make me feel drowsy and lacking
in energy. I'm really crossing my fingers
that this injection will really help.
