I have PN and both feet burn so bad that it's nearly intolerable.

I'll ask my pain dr. when I go to have an epidural on the 14th but until
then: anyone have any knowledge whether or not a ruptured disc at T7-8 may
cause burning pain the feet?

Btw, the epidural is to alleviate siatica pain in my right thigh, from the
knee to the hip.

Thanks.

Hi---

Is that shot an actual spinal epidural, or a trigger point nerve numbing
shot?

I have had both, but was told that they do not do spinal epidurals below
about L5-S1.

I have the same problems, but left hip/leg sciatica.

Anyone know on this for sure?

Thanks---
Ron

I have significant PN. I was actively looking to buy a wheel chair
until my podiatrist put me on Nortryptalin. The relief was amazing.
The pain comes back with a fury when the weather changes but
otherwise, it's tolerable.

Good luck.
