Curiousforever,

I had epidural injections for sciatica pain ayear ago.It didn't help me but I know others that it worked wonders for.Go to the back forum and theres lots of info on epidural injection for the sciatic.Best of luck,I pray that it works for you. theres nothing worse than sciatic nerve pain.I've had it since I was 23,now I'm 40.It comes and goes.

Prayers to you

Toni

I have had 2 epidurals in the last 5 years. The first one lasted almost two years and this last one I got about six months ago is starting to wear off a little but the pain hasn't returned yet. I honestly can't wait to get another one. I plan on continuing to get them instead of surgery for as long as I can.
