Don’t do it. It caused adhesive Arachnoiditis. This is an untreatable incurable very painful disease. The pain is like stage 4 cancer. Awful. The dr user depo medrol which is a toxin. Stays in your body. Don’t take the chance. They never tell you this could happen

Not everyone gets these reactions. I have been lucky. Epidural have helped me. After my shattered L4 4yrs ago Dr's say I am not a candidate for surgery my back is so messed up. This is all I can do. So far they have been working. Don't want to think of the day it won't.

meri, I've never heard of adhesive Arachnoiditis. Now I've read a bit and would like to hear more about your experience, and how you are faring almost a year later. Thanks
