ESI

I just had my second Epidural Steroid Injection (ESI) yesterday.  They went closer to L3-L4 this time.  Last time it was the facet joint around L5-S1.  I am SO much more sore this time.  Last time, I was sore, but only with certain movements, and prolonged standing. This time, I can hardly even lay flat, or sit upright in a chair, or stand at all.  If I am too long in a slouchy position, it is almost impossible to get up on my own. 

But, after the last injection, I do feel that there is hope.
