Just to keep you guys and gals up to date, yesterday I had my first "Epidural Steroid Injection". This is a shot right
into the spine. The doc went in between L-2 and L-3 which, according to the MRI, is the spot in the spine where the disc
has deteriorated the most. They say it will take 3 to 5 days for the steroid to do it's thing.... if it's going to. There are
no guarantees . For roughly the past three or four weeks I have been almost pain-free. I have had a few instances
of shooting pains either in the right hip, or the right groin area. These are gone in a few seconds, but will stop me in my
tracks. I am restricted to lifting ten pounds too.

I'll keep the forum informed as to my progress.

Thanks to all for your kind words and warm wishes.

Charles
