Having suffered with lower back pain for years, I decided to do something about it rather than just dosing up on Ibuprofen.
Unsuccessful course of physio led to MRI scans, and ultimately a day in the Nuffield yesterday having 7 injections of steroids and cortisone into my spine and surrounding nerves and joints.
Feeling very sore this morning mainly due to bruising where the needles went in, however the painkillers are proving very interesting, apologies for any spelling mistakes or wandering trains of thought....
So has anyone had similar treatments for back pain? Successful or not?
Thanks in advance
