@willow5 Hello, thank you for replying. Unfortunately, after multiple types of imaging, (Ultrasounds, CT scans, and MRIs), there is never any evidence of stenosis in my spine, so the doctor basically was "throwing a dart" when he tried the Epidural back in February. He even stated at the time we discussed having the Epidural done, "Well, we can try it." In hindsight, I should have said no, we should try what you are sure will work, not "Let's give this a shot!"
I have not been able to do regular workouts because of my oblique and flank muscles locking up with the slightest movements. Anything that requires your core is very difficult to even try. I have been going to PT with a specialist in the Schroth Method, which is dealing specifically with people that have Scoliosis, which I do have. It is helping me get stronger and more flexible, and after 10 visits, there is actually a reduction in the curve of my spine, from 27 degrees to 24.
