My husband had severe leg pain that apparently stemmed from some spinal thing. The only thing the dr. could do was the epidurals. He had several and felt better afterwards then a year or so later had several more and felt better again. Just when the pain was getting bad again he had a serious motorcycle accident, broke his leg so bad that they were afraid they wouldn't be able to save it (but thank God they did), was laid up and off work for nearly a year but finally recuperated. Know what?? No more leg pain (or should I say no more of that particular leg pain)! Something got jarred back in place I guess - whatever was causing that pain. Now we just have to deal with more surgery eventually for his knee issues made worse by the accident. So, long story short (too late!)..... the epidurals worked for him. Good luck in whatever you decide to do!
