Spinal injection for pain relief

Good luck tvman, you'll be walking along the beach before you know it xx 

And??? Did you get it? Can you feel anything yet...sorry i have never been patient

The thing is Pet is that you in Assieland are two days in front of Tvman, he, being in in Ireland is two days behind the rest of the world.! I don't know when we all come together. You are right though Pet we don't expect to wait, its a bit of a liberty.

Ha ha ha ha ha  There's always a joker in the pack. I shall answer Pet as it's nearly dinnertime for her and you're probably well in the land of nod.

Tvman 

Hi Tvman, I am not in the land of nod and have also been wondering how you got on? Please don't keep me in suspenders! Or do I mean suspense!! Ho Ho Ho! 

Hi Pet

Yes, I had the steroid injection, well 4 of them actually. 2 in the left side of my lower spine and 2 on the right side. The 2 on the right side had me in a lot of pain. Today I was out and about but maybe just a little less painful. I did walk from the car into a couple of shops and there was definitely still pain!

The doctor told me not to expect a miracle.

Take care and stay safe everyone

Well done it was brave to have the steroid injections 

well done for walking. It may take time to work. At least you tried even if it isn’t 100%sucessful 

I have my CT scan on the 21st January. It seems a long time ahead to wait but I haven’t had any more problems.

it will be interesting to see how my lungs are now I am more breathless and if I am likely to get more bleeding x

You definitely have to give steroid injections time to work, and, I believe, work they will.

You do remember from a happier time Annette, I can't be doing with the mention of suspenders, it brings on the vapours! 

Oh Ruth, so sorry to hear that you are having bleeding problems and I hope you CT scan shows improvement.

Take care and stay safe Ruth
