I was told success not eminent and a second shot may be needed. I will update with better news.

Good you are at least getting some good results, keep up the fight, never give up!

I have a follow up in a few weeks with PM doctor. I was woken up by intense tingling down lumbar, back of legs, bottoms of feet that usually goes away quicker. It lasted so long, was nagging on me. Spasms and twitching under skin is ongoing along with pain. I still have hope this might improve, pain except not having too much hope for spasms. So, definitely need answers so it can halt it (it spreads around body).

If this stays this way, I will probably need another one, but the jury is out.

Thank you for the encouragement! I will!

Well, I’m leveling off and if I’m feeling what I’m feeling, I woke up two days at 3am with intense tingling…Not good. Pains return, leveling off from the steroid elevation. Foot pain back. Not sure what if anything the shots now done.

The only thing I can say is that the tingling I’ve been having since this started, to when I got the shot (had tingling while injected) down both legs. Is back worse. So I’m not feeling too happy. Not sure what another shot would do. False sense of security. The first 2-3 days were promising. Well, that was sort lived.
🙁
