If so, please add me.  Due to the findings on my MRI, I'll be getting an epidural block (for leg & back pain) on Monday.  I had 2 of them 20 years ago & they're so painful....pain to get rid of pain.  It does beat surgery, which is the next step & I pray that it doesn't come to that.  The pain is wearing me down & tears come easily.


DH has been trying to keep me busy to get my mind off the pain, but it's difficult since it hurts when I walk, sit & lay down for any length of time.  I'm taking a pain RX every 4 hours & it does help a bit.


Thanks for being here...I needed to give my DH a break from hearing about my problem.   Hugs, Cal

Hi Cal, I will most definitely keep you in my prayers!!! I wish my words could take away your pain but since that won't work I am hoping that the epidural block procedure has improved since the last time you had one. I think that this is entirely possible.
Gentle hugs and prayers to you,
Carol

Cal, I'm so sorry that the leg has been so painful, but it's better to get to the bottom of it and make sure it's not going to get worse, at least we hope not.
