They are going to use anesthesia as he is doing the full lumbar, when it comes to needles....I HATE THEM!!! they could be made of GOLD but I would still hate them!
Do you know why they did not take with you? How did you feel after the shot? What I'm worried about other than hitting a nerve is what they are calling a wet tap...times that by the amount of times I'm being injected.....sounds like getting teeth pulled with out a pain shot would feel better.
They didn't take with me due to my problem being in the sciatic nerve sp? Multiple car accidents,stone masonry,bar backing and sports have taken a major toll on me .The freaky thing is when they inject the needle they go in ,
Then go way in . Just relax and remember this procedure is routine for them. After I was wiped out came home and crashed for about five hours . You will know within two weeks if they helped or not . The few days after I was sore and took it very light . From what I have been told they can give you up to 3 injections a year . During the process I was freaked because you think how much farther can that thing go before it comes out the other side .
Have faith , I hope it fixes you . You have a entire forum rooting for you , lighting candles saying prayers .
