I had a right-sided lumbar
epidural at levels L3-4 and L4-5 on Friday afternoon. By Friday evening, my whole right leg from the waist down was filled with shooting pains (after the numbing part of the injections wore off). It felt like my leg was glowing. I took and extra 50 mg. of Lyrica, and extra Vicodin 5/500, 5 mg. of Ambien, and was still only able to sleep 3 or 4 broken hours.
