I feel your pain brother... literally. I've been battling bulging discs for many years and dodging surgery. i've have had epidural steroid injections about every 4 months the last 2 years that has kept things to a dull roar, but my last shot just before Christmas didnt do a damn thing. So i've got an ablation therapy scheduled for early May.
I'm hoping this works or i too will be looking at the same surgery you are having. Good luck on that one... Kirk
Thanks
Mike, ya home yet or ya gotta stay a day or two?
Kirk, I had the epidural steroid injection between L4 and L5 last August 20th and it really helped me out. Now I gotta get one in the right hip May 1st. There are times when it hits me that I need crutches to walk for 4 or 5 days.
Well things did not go as planned. The doc had about 4-5 delay. They gave us an option to go home and reschedule so we resheduled.need the doc fresh anyhow.

I've had mixed success with the steroid injections over the last 2 years. Different doctors and slightly different locations made a difference too. But...Nothing lasted over about 3-4 months. i haven't got to the point of having to use crutches yet, but staying on my feet for long periods at a time is painful, and hiking any distance at all without constantly stopping isn't happening any more.
So i just pace myself, and sit more often..... What else can ya do? This getting old kinda sucks.
I had an epidural that lasted maybe 4 days.
I have to call in the morning to reschedule.
