      Hi Pat! I have been dealing with back pain for about 30 years. At first they said I was too young to have back pain so it went untreated for years. Because no one would listen to me, I have a really bad spine. I've had back surgery, physical therapy, epidurals up the ying yang, drugs and can honestly say that you need a really great doc to give you an epidural. I've had so many of them I can't count. I had my last one a little over a week ago and it's the first time it actually helped. This doc was fantastic! It didn't hurt much (most of them are horrible) and he helped me feel at ease. Hang in there! Carol PS - Glad you see we're the same age!
