when i had our new little bundle 18 days ago i was given a epidural (which failed ) and a spinal block, since then i have had a aching in my back, just wondered if anyone else had this and how long it lasted for.
thanks xx _________________

I had an epidural that failed then a spinal block. I did suffer for a couple of weeks after did cause me a lot of bruising . I relieved the pain with paracetamol but it did improve as the bruising went and I have no problems now. Hope it gets better soon.

I had a bruised feeling for about 4-5 months - and still jump if the spot is pressed - I had 6 failed attempts at getting it in the right space before the 7th was right, so I put it down to that!
Hope you feel better soon but do tell your GP at your 6 week check if you are not happy xxx _________________

If i lie on the floor I cannot get up, feels like it is a hard board now where I had it injected, but I don't hurt otherwise.
I hope you are Ok
