I Did It!

Well..I had my cervical spinal injections today...and I survived! LOL! I was really nervous that it would hurt, but they gave me some IV drugs (versed) to help me relax and then they just numbed the site on the side of my neck locally with a shot of lido. The doc put a needle in my neck and was using a fluoroscope to guide and take pictures. He poked around and asked things like "can you feel that in your arm?" After a few minutes he did the other side. The only thing that hurt was the numbing medicine that he put in and that was mild and very brief. I was ready to go home after about 1 1/2 hrs in recovery and I was very lucid.
I wasn't really having much neck pain today when I went..mostly b/c my legs and feet were just so damn bad. But now my neck and shoulders are stiff and I have a terrible headache. The usual for my neck pain when it is acting up. I think I am going to call the doctor on call tonight since I don't remember what exactly they said about this and the paper they gave me is a bit unclear. But, I don't think it worked as a pain reliever...so I hope at least the pictures will tell my doctor what to do next.
I am just glad it is over and was not bad...and I am so thankful for all of my online friends that sent out the good vibes and prayers for me today...It worked y'all...y'all got me through this and I am so lucky to have each and every one of you rooting for me!
I will update when I talk to the doctor.
