I do believe that the nerve or surrounding area was damaged during the injection. All my symptoms point to arachnoiditis. The doctor who did the injection said, "I have been doing these for 40 years and have never had a problem, so it can't be me". He was not even open to discussions about what could have happened during the procedure.

Just sharing my thoughts here -- 40 years of experience or not accidents happen. If it were me I would probably have been a little angry at first but what's done is done. Now that it's happened what can we do to fix or treat the resulting conditions or symptoms. The doctor should be open to listening. If not and it was me, I would try to seek a second opinion on whether or not the injection caused nerve damage and how can we fix or treat it.

Hoping you find some answers soon.
