When I had my son four years ago I had an epidural. It went very smooth. Since then I've had severe pain where the epidural was placed like my spine is ripping apart. Which brings us to today. I had my second son a month ago and had the epidural again. The doctor said in the middle of placing it that he was having a lot of trouble placing it. Needless to say, it failed and only worked on my left side for ten minutes before fading. Now my spine pain is absolutely terrible and brings tears to my eyes. Has anyone sought out treatment for this chronic pain? I don't know what to do anymore. It's really taking a toll on me. Any and I mean any insight would be greatly appreciated!
