Spinal injection for pain relief

Sounds unpleasant and it would be good to get it sorted. I know about carpal tunnel syndrome but I had never heard of cubital  tunnel syndrome. I do know where the cubital nerve is and the funny bone when knocked is painful.

Good luck x

I'd love to hear that you were beginning to get some relief. Fingers crossed for you tvman.  Rainie x

Very many thanks to all who replied with good wishes and advice, it's really appreciated. Well a couple of weeks post op I'm doing fine.My wife and I along with our daughter, son in law, grandson and granddaughter went out yesterday evening for a meal.

I took the bull by the horns and asked my daughter not to get my chair out of the boot. I walked in, head held high and found my son in law at our table. I couldn't have done that for the last 6 years. I couldn't have walked much further, my back was starting to burn but hey, it's an improvement albeit small. 

The cherry on the cake was that there was a disabled toilet too! 

Take care and stay safe everyone

Sounds more than a small improvement to me Tvman, it sounds massive. Let's hear of more over Christmas.

Hi Norbs, you're quick on the ball! I'll do my best. Take care my friend
