    My sympathy...hurt like **** when I had it done ...he hit the nerve going in and hit the nerve coming out ...I called him (specialist) every obscenity I could think off .... It hurt more than the 17 days i did on traction and the operation itself

    Ive had 2 mate and it's awful. I had one after I broke two of my vertebrae from a car accident (well not much of an accident when a drink driver smashes into you on the wrong side of the road but yano) and 1 a year later after they found out I had corda equina.

    Hope you get sorted mate.

    Hope things going o.k. for you. The procedure used to be that once you've had the puncture you have to lie flat on your back for 24 hours.

    Yes mate. A few years ago. They somehow caught a nerve and I was uncontrollably giving a whole seasons free kicks. They got it eventually. Hope it goes well. They’ll sort it.
