epideral injection
ad
Tomorrow I'm finally getting that injection for my back its been over a year of a dragged out process for a 15 min procedure. Hope it helps I don't or not ready to deal w surgery yet. My L4 L5 cartilage is partially shattered. Is there any peptides or something that can regrow that? Lol k wish me luck.

Since it's L4 and L5 that are effected,if the docs want to inject above L3 I would refuse that,as it is my opinion it was the proximity to the basil ganglia at the base of the neck that is most susceptible to triggering the heart response.
Just a thought bro,looking out for you.
Evening Green Ranger.
Had a series of epidurals back in 2004.
One/month total of 5 or 6.
Started low on the back and worked up from there.
While it was great to get some relief I found it did not last all that long for me.
Had an incident when they got to the vertabrea at the base of the neck,my heart went a bit wild.
I had experience with self hypnosis and other meditation/relaxation methods that helped me get that pulse rate down.
You will want to make sure you have no stimulants at all in your system before injection,not even morning coffee.
I'm just a dumb noob beginning to look at AAS and peptides for spinal
healing,found some peptide info at the sellers sites.
But I am quite hesitant about getting into peptide use,I do believe I would need more info and $$ to consider that.
Now,there may be a difference between herniated and ruptured,I admit I do not even know that much.
But I will say I came across an interesting study on oxandralone and
spinal cord pressure ulcers just yesterday.
It would seem the Var healed non-healing spinal cord pressure ulcers in %89 of patients.
Now that is not the same as healing a ruptured disc.
But it is something.
My brother has the whole drive train also blown,this post has caught my attention.
Please do continue to post on your progress.
By the timeline I am guessing they done 3 of your lowers,and you have
2-5 more injections coming at the rate of one per month.
The heart going wild is why they do these things in a hospital near the ER ward.

GOOD LUCK BRO
Have been considering the peptides for healing as well, but just like you ive been hesitant because of my lack of knowledge on the subject, way more research is needed before I take the plunge.
Note:
The healing of the pressure ulcers was listed as NR to the androgenic effect.
Thus it would seem it is a different function of the compound.
This may or may not be the case with other compounds,but what I am thinking now is that using the AAS for muscle growth is one thing,using it for osteo is another.
If I could go back a couple of months I would be using lower dose of test and eating more Var.
My first 45 days where basically Var only and I felt better along the spine,began to be able to do some yoga style stuff.
Not the case with the test,I had hoped it would go to the osteo even better,but I am not feeling that.
Not enough experience to say anything about any other AAS compounds.
My plan now is to eat more Var and use a padded spinal alignment device while exercising on that device.
There are quite a few models of devices out there,some are just hard plastic and others have padded foam.
Do a search on "spinal alignment device."
The one I have coming in the mail now is shorter ,as I am doing mostly upper midback, a mere $15.
They have a full length padded device,as well as several hard plastic models.
They are all shaped in the same curve as the spine with an opening in the middle for the column itself,and supports just along that opening.
It's going to hurt yes,but we must get blood flow to the area.
I will say the Dianabol created some feeling of wetness and lubrication,but not the feeling of new tissue being healed like the Var did.
That is to say,the d-bol lubed it up so the pain from movement was less,but the Var did the healing.
The test sort of does the same thing,but not as well,but then again,it is continuous and not intermittent like the oral.
If it was not my first cycle I would try the NPP/Deca.
Considering going to early PCT and starting a new cycle with
some NPP next go-round.
Of course this is purely a recounting of my personal experience.
So just a bit (15-25mg) of d-bol along with the var for me.
Just a wee bit for the extra wetness, aggression and endurance,while I feel it is the Var making the actual connective tissue along the spine feel better/heal.
Went in for Injection today hopefully this ones the good one that takes care of back pain for awhile. Now waiting 5 more weeks for bloods can't wait to get started w AAS Cycle.
After 2 months of gutting it out I finally have that follow up appointment tomorrow. Im hopeful for the future.
Was at Disneyland for like 3 days n knotts berry farm and my back is killing me! Right side is still bad need that follow up asap. Making that call monday morning
K went all day without painpills but now my right side lower bk is hurting i think due to long hrs at work. Accidently drank hydrocodon instead of my muscle relaxer fk im pissed but anyhow tomorrow is another day gotta wake up early for work. Nite peeps
Coming out of the hospital the procedure was painless can already feel pain relief so im very hopefull this will get me good to go for at least a couple of months. No nousea being experienced from sedative as of yet.
Glad to hear it. You should feel even better in the next few days. Let us know how it's going. Congrats.
D day plus 1 my pain has subsided dramatically just feel a tiny bit of pain on my right buttocks sciatic area-ish. The good news is ive dramatically reduced pain killers to 200 mg ibeprophen in am and 1 muscle relaxer at night. Compared to past med history yea!!!
You will do fine with the injection. Usually your first injection is for diagnostic purposes, but it may help with your pain as well. Once they know the exact nerves or facet areas that are causing the problems, they can offer other treatments as well. Usually the benefits of these injections last a few months, but that can vary from person to person. I hope that it brings you relief!
Good to know thanks for the support bro.
GearofWarBest of luck my brother. Had a triple laminectomy, triple discectomy with 3 burst discs back in 2007 at L4, L5, S1. Was struggling with extreme pain until I got the spinal cortisone epidural and it improved substantially until I had the surgery.
Damn that is hardcore glad you're still in the fight that's what I call perseverance.
GearofWarThanks my brother. I know that once you get your epidural you will feel a substantial amount of pain relief. It really helped me out quite a bit.

Nice, will definately look into this, back pain sucks so more than willing to travel. Thanx for sharing.
If I ever needed any medical attention I would follow the rich. What are they doing ? What would a QB of a NFL team do if they had your injury? I bet the team has 1 guy that sees everyone on the team with back problems.
True that brother. Thanks for the encouragement
hope the best for you. Side not I know a lady that had those injections and she loved them.
Yup a co-worker had them done like 3 yrs ago and hes been doing fine since. Hopefully samething happens for me or off to Germany for me lol
