pain during epidural injections

pain during epidural injections

I had three epidural injections.  When the medicine was administered, the pain was awful. I nearly jumped off the table.  I could not use the dye because I am allergic to it.  The nurse said that it was painful because of the  inflamation (inflammation).  Has anyone experienced this while getting an epidural injection.

I had a myelogram two months ago (they injected dye) and I had the same problem you did. It hurt terribly down into my lower back/butt and they said it was the dye irritating the nerves. I'd never had lower back pain before. I still have the same pain everyday through my lower back/hips and down my legs and still they say its the dye. Are you doing better now? How long since your last injection?
