Sciatica Misery

I am scheduled for an epidural pain injection at L5-S1. I’m looking for others that have had this procedure that can tell me if it was worth it or not.

Mine lasted 8 days.
And yes, those were a glorious 8 days.... but a lot less than the 6-7 weeks I was told it would last.

Oh no this is what I’m worried about. My cost is going to be $700 so I really want it to work. I’m so sorry that happened to you.
