Has anyone tried an epidural nerve block? My pain Dr. brought this idea up last week. I told him I would think about it. Does it hurt when given? Is it a shot in the spine? Does it numb everything from the waist down? How long does it last? Is it worthwhile? I have tried the nuerontin and it didn't help me. We are now trying the 50 duragesic patch and a pill called topamax. I am getting some minimal relief so far.(only been a few days) I hope this Monday is the start of a pain-free week for all!!
