"Sweety, try not to worry too much. I have had many injections in the base of my spine. The joy is, the pain goes, makes the injections a joy. Good luck and try not to panick xx "Thank you! I literally know nothing about stuff like this. I was told it would affect my mobility for 24 hours or so... How bad does it get? :-/ | |||

"If it's anything like the analgesics they use for c-sections then you'll be fine. Losing the ability to use your legs for a while can feel weird, but it's not awful. Plus they'll be monitoring you and keeping you in hospital for that bit i'm guessing? Any aneathesia they have to keep an eye on you for while after having one." It's a local anaesthetic and then the injection. They then check my blood pressure and stuff then I get to go home the same day. It sounds straightforward when I say it like that. But my brain is going "NOOOOOOOOOOOO".. My leg stopped hurting temporarily earlier.. I don't think my body wants me to have the injection lol | |||

"Is that an epidural you're having?" As far as I'm aware, it's in a different place. It's given while I'm laying on my front. Isn't an epidural given laying on your side with your legs tucked up? I'm not sure but I think it's different | |||

"Yes I have had it done before due to longterm back pain, anesthetic and steriods. It was actually a very simple procedure and I was home within a a couple of hours, rest for about 24 hours and was back to normal after that." Is it excruciatingly painful? Or am I getting worked up over nothing? Lol | |||

See you got proof it works already, just thinking about it helped. 
I see people who know what they're talking about are here again, i'll leave them to it. I'm sure you'll be ok. | |||

Oh and when I had it done I was able to see what was happening as they kept on taking xrays of the siting of the needles, it was quite cool to see | |||

I'm not a fan of local anaesthetic but I've had plenty of them so I know I can handle it. Had one in the middle of my chest to get a mole removed.. Hurt like a bitch. But yeah. It doesn't sound too bad. Still not looking forward to it, but I'm not quite as panicked! | |||

"I know absolutely nothing about this procedure, but the single most pain I have ever felt was while enduring a bone marrow biopsy "Thanks for that.. Wincing with sympathy pain! | |||

"I had one for my c section. They have to get the needle (not much thinner than a knitting needle to be fair) in between the discs in the lower back. They tried about three times, but because I have a petite back (their words), it wouldn't go in. It was excruciating. I could feel the needle trying to get between the discs. They tried a 4th time with a very experienced dr that succeeded. Was worth it though "Ouch ouch ouch ouch ouch! I really really hope it's worth it. If it doesn't work they've got to put this weird pacemaker type thing in my back... | |||

Yeah that's the one :-/ "Hmm, it may be worth asking whether your doctor would be willimg or able to offer a procedure, only if needed, which would involve burning off the nerve endings instead. I am no doctor and they most likely believe the treatment course they set out is best but my doctor offered me this as a long term solution (I became pregnant and then circumstances changed so haven't had it done yet) | |||

I'll definitely discuss options if I need to. Thank you  | |||
