The shot was a godsend for me, and I'm on the verge of throwing myself at the doctor's feet and begging for another one. (That's tomorrow's adventure.) The procedure took all of like, half an hour, and part of that was getting into the dumb surgical gown. Mine was upper spine (C6/7) so your experience could be different, but the most memorable part was feeling briefly like an elephant was stepping on my back when the steroid went in. More discomfort than hurt, and over quickly.

Yeah, the whole "shot in the spine" thing is freaky as hell, but I'm verging on nonfunctional ATM, so it's the only option. The last one worked for over a year and I'm hoping for the same again.

Not trying to talk you into it, just offering my perspective.
