I have c4 thru C7 severe foraminal stenosis. My pain is only on my right side, extends to my right ribcage and right arm and thumb and index finger. I was treated in the ER with Decadron, Valium and Percoet as it got so bad. Put on 40 mg Prednosone for 5 days with nsaids. Referred to PAin Management DR. He tried me on Gabapentin but it made me severely depressed. Moved forward to Cervical ESI yesterday, he wants me to start Lyrica 25 mg twice a day and Celebrex 100 mg twice a day, Have not started them yet, waiting to see what the ESI does as the effects usually take 3-5 days.
