Guest guest Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Goodness Bennie, I am so sorry! How long has your rectum been numb? When I had the injections in my lower back the pain lasted about 10 days, and it was horrid. And I had that burning pain you are speaking of but it did go away. I hope the injections didn't do any more damage. I'm hoping things just got inflamed and will go back to normal? Take care of yourself and you are right, we should always follow our first instinct but like you I opted to at least try the injections because I was in so much pain. Hang in there! Caitlin Moderator Well, I had been doing so well, so to speak, then the sacral injections, a six hour drive, week of constipation, three days of throwing up my pain meds,thyroid meds, having my family pick me up, a horrid ride home, hours of getting my pain meds back up, made me think ending it all again. I am the one that hates the injections and thought again I would try then in a different area. It did not work, it made my rectum numb, and the nerve root is the problem in the first place.
