I had a Epidural steroid injections on Thursday and Friday was the only day I had with no pain. The Epidural steroid injections combined with the other pain meds I am on seemed to take my pain level down to a 3 or 4 at times. When I take the Norco it helps big time but I do not like taking pain meds. I was drugged up all day yesterday and I felt really out of it.
I want to live a non-drowsy life.
The Norco's make me sleepy but I don't sleep if that makes any sense. I will lay down and close my eyes and it feels like i am resting. However, I can still hear everything around me so I am not sleep. I can deal with that if my pain goes away. The Norco will give me a few hours of pain relief.
I am in pain right now but I won't take anything until I can't take the pain anymore.
I am 34 with a hubby and 2 kids. This coupled with my heart condition I feel old.
Anyone ever had the Epidural steroid injections not work for them? If so, what was your next step?
