Welcome @nickwhite, it's encouraging to hear that the epidural steroid injection (ESI) you had seems to be helping. You ask "How long did it last for you?"

To get answers from others like @babette @mickeyb2 @grandmar @jmweissler, I moved your question to this existing and helpful discussion:

How are you feeling today, Nick? Is the first ESI you've had?
