Whoever did both the epidural and spinal block was an IDIOT. Both of these SHOULD have been done with a scope (I can't remember the actual name for it). The scope shows EXACTLY where to place the needle, and he can see it on a monitor!!! He's an IDIOT for doing it just by "feel." He could have done some serious damage by doing it like that!
You really need an MRI with and without contrast material to see what is going on in there. X-rays wouldn't show everything cause they don't show the soft tissue and MRI's do, and that's what needs looking at. You MIGHT have bulging/herniated discs or there could be something else wrong. So PLEASE see your doc and ask him to do an MRI but make sure he tells them to use contrast material too. Some docs don't order that.
After you get it, make sure you get a copy of the report of the MRI and post it here. We can help you "decipher" it. I wish you the very best. God bless and take care! Hugs, Lee
