I have not been on in months. I have my new little guy who is 4 months now and getting heavy and working a number on my arm. The docs now are talking about epidural injections. I assume they are steroid epidural injections. I haven't had a chance to ask questions. What should I expect with this? If the shots are effective would I feel it right away? I read a past post that someone got worse? I need to plan to have extra help if there is a in between stage, with the little guy the game is different for me. Any advice would be great! Thanks, Jama
I get upper eppidurals for a deteriorating disc disease and they also help with the burning of RSD that I have in both arms...they help me a lot, up to 6 months each time. They also helped me right away and got even better after a couple of days. The eppidural is a simple procedure, it done under a floroscope....do not let anyone do it with out a floroscope, very dangerious ans there are a small handfull of Drs who think they are good enough to do it with out the aid of a floroscope(xray). They dont hurt as you should be put under anistesia just long enough for the Dr to do the injection. I get a little nausiated for a couple of day after but my Dr said that is unusual. I hope that it works as well for you as it does for me...good luck
