Guest guest Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 What kind of spinal injections did you have? I had 2 also, but they did not help me. I am just curious, mine were epidurals with steriod. Thanks, Bennie wrote: It is so easy to consent to something because you are in so much pain. Get several opinions.

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 , The same, most of my test was removed from my original message but I had many and they will cause scarring and problems. I also became allergic to the steriods. The main concern I think people should remember that in the consent it says scarring occurs and it does with repeated injections and causes more problems.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Mike, Congratulations on the new puppy! I am sure you have already been told, but I have to say it, pets are WONDERFUL therapy! Please, do tell, what kind of pup are you getting. I have a 10-year-old Golden Retriever who I have trained to assist me in various ways. He is also the absolute BEST therapy when I am feeling a little down and blue. He always seems to know when 'mama doesn't feel good' and he does what he can to help me feel better. Good luck with the pup.
