Hi all , long time lurker first time poster ! I suffered a serious back injury a few years back after a bad fall , Eventually had to go down the route of injections but this was a good 12 /15 months( by the time I went to consultant /repeat MRI’s ) after the initial injury and I was sedated , I went through the Hermitage ! Can’t remember the exact injection I got but I can say one thing - the sedation was a complete surprise to me at the time , it was completely over the top and a total insurance Rip off if you get me because I had private cover . Even with this level of care I had in place , I was weeks waiting on the whole process and not two weeks . And as far out and about socializing , going to work was as far as I got . It was so bad at times I used to cry when I sneezed . It was full year before I was able to go shows etc because sitting for so long was just a non runner .
I suffered terribly and still do with severe sciatic pains due to the damage I did my sacral nerve( it runs through the bone I broke in my back ) . Days you can’t feel your leg / foot never mind be off out or trying on a million outfits ! I must get the name of the magic pills she’s been taking because I sure could do with them !!
