No, just the right side for the pain. Which is the side I had most of the problems with. Pre-op symptoms on the right side was numbness in all the toes and even into my heal when I drove for long periods. The left side didn't come until about 1 month before surgery, but it is not giving me any problems as of yet. But it's different pain......I'll talk to Dr. Foti at my follow-up on Monday.
The last MRI showed L5-S1 disc pressing against the nerve on the right side, which is the same side the doc hit with the pin during the nerve root injection.
