I have had two epidural injections due to bulging and herniated disks from L3-S1. I put off
any type of treatment for about 18 months but at that point, could not stand the
constant pain from the lower back all the way down to my left ankle.
I could not beleive the releif I felt a couple of days after the procedure. Althogh
the epidurals can wear off and you will need another, it was well worth it.
