Sorry to hear that, what a blow.
I haven't had any, but have heard that they work for some but not others.
A friend was told it's 50/50 so he wouldn't know until he tried. His appointment is next Wednesday.
Hope you find a way to get your pain under control xx
Tec2tec, how long so ce you had them ?. I find its about a week to 10 days before they work properly. The steroid reduces inflammation which is our body's response to hurt or damage.
The inflammation doesn't disappear just like that. The leaflets say a few days but my experience is longer.
Hope that's the case for you.

Thanks it’s now been 12days saw my doctor he is putting me on pregaberlin
I've had injections for many years now none of them really helped I've had the burning of the nerves in my lower back that didn't help I'm on pain medicine oxycodone 15 mg four times a day and morphine 30 mg time release ER tablets two times a day and that helps but does not solve the problem but they was wanting that put a black box that has low electrodes that shot your nerves into my back and that's my last option and I'm not going that route but I hope you get some kind of relief my reply
