Depomederol Injection

Depomederol Injection

I have an L4-L5 protrusion, verified by an MRI.  My bone structure in my spine is OK, verified by normal x-ray.

I had the 1st in a series of 3 Depomederol epidural injections yesterday, and I am extremely sore.  In fact, I am in more pain now than when I first when into the doctor's office.  He said that is normal, and I should just take Tylenol.

I am afraid since I am reading all of these horror stories regarding Depomederol and all kinds of horrible conditions that have resulted because of Depomederol.

I did have the injection using a floroscopy so that the doctor can pinpoint the injection as best as he could.  He indicated that the injection went in "perfectly".

Is my soreness normal, or should I be concerned?

Thanks.
