Re: Lumbar Cortisone Injections…

I only have 91/2 fingers due to being on a high dose of Lyrica - horrible stuff.
I have CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) because of a bad crush injury to my left foot and my pain specialist suggested lumbar injections as a way to cope and lessen the pain. From memory I had 5 of them over a period of months. Each one did help but the assistance lessened as time wore on. I had no side affects.
I was apprehensive before my first one, despite my specialist saying it would be ok. After the first one it was just another step in my possible recovery.
