I must admit I don't get that, unless you are being knocked out for another operation and then the epidural is being put in for pain relief for your recovery period afterwards. Am I in the right ball park here?

 

no. apparently its to directly inject anti inflammatory, as the tablets ive been taking havent improved it. gives it a huge boost apparently. prolapsed disc

ive got to have an injection in my spine this week. do they hurt :(

 

Yes the hurt like a kick in the balls..

 

My mum has just had this operation last week, she is now a spastic, and does a great impression of Sir Joseph Deacon MBE.

Don't worry Keithy, there is a 50% chance they wont:

 

A, hack

B, inject

C, sever

D, hit

E, damage

 

your spinal cord or nerve. At least that is what they told mother. Unfortunatly if they do, you will be dancing with Davros, Hawking and Deacon and drinking doughnuts through a straw & dribbling like a Komodo dragon.

Don't sign the form, think of it as a personal insurance.
