re: epidural causes back problems?

For about six months afterward I would get these sharp pinching pains on one side of my back and it'd tingle after like it was asleep. But it happened only every once in a while and havent had that problem since.

Quoting Mavick:“ I heard the risk of an epidural was if you move while they insert it or whatever, you can get paralized waist down.. it happened to my pastor..”

Really? Along time ago or recently?That's scary!

that's scary!

You could also fry your liver from taking tylenol, and die horribly over three pain filled days.

You could also walk across the street and get hit by a bus.

heh

I think the odds are probably comparable for all three.
