    Going for nerve blockers in 6 weeks. Wondering how sore people found it and the aftermath. Will I be able to work the next day? Having it done on a Monday so hoping I'll be comfortable for working on Tuesday. Any advice ?

    recovery can be hit or miss, just by virtue of getting your body worked on , meds etc can take that little bit of time to heal, be prepared to have a sick note just in case. from what I can remember it can be hit and miss as treatment, a good headspace before and after increases healing

    You mean epidural nerve blocks?

    Mod note

    Irishlady, medical advice isn't permitted so no one here is going to be able to say whether you'll be able to work the next day as this depends on your own personal/clinical circumstances. You should speak to your doctor who can provide advice on this.

    Other posters who have had this done are welcome to share their experiences of it.

    Not looking for medical advice. Looking to hear from others who have had the same procedure and how they felt after
