I have been diagnosed with a disc bulge and annular tear of my L5/S1 disc which is impinging on the S1 nerve root. Basically my feet are numb, my ass is numb, my balls are numb and i get electrical sensations down my legs when I bend my neck.
Saw the specialist today he said a good old epidural and cortisone injection should fix it.
So my question is, has anyone ever had this procedure done? And what was it like pain wise? And did it work?
I am a bit nervous getting needles into my spine, I know its pretty safe, but still..
