Sometimes i get pain relief for a week, sometimes i get pain relief for a couple of days and sometimes i get no pain relief from the epidurals. I dont know why this is but it does seem to me that  it can be a hit and miss with epidurals. So dont be disheartened because you didnt get any relief from your epidural, are you going to try have another one? Maybe next time the surgeon will have a better idea of what amount of epidural you may need next time. I too have bulging discs as well as two prolapsed discs and i understand how painful it can be for you. i wish you the best for the future with your pain control, take care   big hugs from starlight.</p></blockquote><p></p>
