Severe Back Pain with Sciatic Nerve

By kellybel1

I have been to the hospital and had a MRI showing that I have several bulging disks in my back. The doctor offered physical therapy or surgery to remove the disk! The muscle relaxers and pain medication is not helping. I can hardly walk due to the pain in my hip & down the front of my leg. I am considering returning to the United States for Nerve Block injections that work very good. (I am NOT ready for serious back surgery!)

Has anybody had Epidural Steroid injections or Nerve Block injections in Qatar? If so, can you recommend the doctor?

Thank you,
~Kelly

According to me u shud rush to US as soon as possible for a vocation as well a treatment in ur home country. These Epidural Steroid injections or Nerve Block injections gives only temporary & u may face side effects of it.
