Severe lumbar nerve pain. Any hope to offer?

@nemo1 That’s what I would have done. When I had the bad reaction, they gave me a steroid dose pack. It didn’t help and I just had to wait it out. They suggested just lie in bed and prop my arm on a pillow and try not to move because moving would increase the electric shocks.

That sounds really rough. To have to ride it out. Thats what it feels like I am doing.
The nurse practitioner gave me meloxicam. I took it at 630. I woke at 6am with stiffness, and an ankle spasm with lightning like pain. I could not move it in any direction without extreme pain. So the nsaid didn’t work. So now the tightness is a new symptom I’m now feeling. I’m getting nervous. My neurologists reevaluation is monday.
