Spinal Block

Jeff's spinal block this morning went well. They didn't have to put him under anestesia for the procedure which was a relief to both of us, so it didn't take nearly as long as we expected. We were there for about an hour and home by 11:30...not too bad.

Jeff is hurting some at the injection site, and the nurse said it could be up to 48 hours before the steroids take full effect. I really hope it helps him with the pain cause his physical therapy sessions sure aren't! If it doesn't help, they said they will most likely do another one, which is stupid in my opinion. I fear that we're getting closer and closer to the possibility of surgery...something we are both worried about. We'll see what happens the next couple of months.
