Got my Esi last Wednesday. Didn't feel any difference until yesterday. The pain has got really bad in my lower back but my leg is still the same. Struggling to get up and bend. To go back in 6 weeks but may try and get seen sooner if the pain is like this.

I am so sorry they caused you more pain. When i have had them i always have an apt in 2 weeks to see how the shots did. I am very fortunate in the fact that they sometimes did not work, but never caused an increase in pain. I hope there is something else they can do for you now.

xray and mri show different issues. They usually start with conservative therapy... xray... then MRI. A friend is going through this now. I believe it's cost containment. Its frustrating that they won't do an MRI. Even if it turns out to be nothing, you'll have a baseline and know what your spine looks like now.

The last few days my lower back has been the worst I've felt it. I can't straighten up or lean back at all. I took a muscle relaxant and it did nothing. I'm kinda worried that the disc has fully herniated. I've got ortho on Thursday anyway so I'll wait and see what they say. I'm hoping it's just a pulled muscle or something and goes away.

The severe pain when leaning back may be a disc problem, but it is also consistent with facet issues (and probably other issues as well.)
Sorry you seem to be getting worse. Mark
