Pain way after Epidural given !?
Answer:
There are so many things that could cause this. It could be something lacking in your diet. I wouldn't wait to see the doctor. I would make an appointment as soon as possible.
I made the mistake of putting off seeing my doctor and as a result, my health has suffered in unnecessary ways. I will get better, but it's a long battle back to feeling well again. So please don't wait. Best wishes to you.
SEE YOUR DOC!!
Epidurals can cause all kinds of nasty problems!! It probably is the reason for all your pain, hun!
I once knew a woman who got an epidural and they stuck it in her the wrong way, and she was paralyzed from the waist down and had to be in a wheelchair. That really sucked because how can you take care of a newborn baby when you are newly crippled and learning how to live your life from a wheelchair. It was really hard for her!!
See your doctor ASAP and find out what's wrong with you. It's really hard to enjoy motherhood when you are living in constant pain!
Take Care, hun!
my co-worker claims an epidural gave her headaches constantly. You should see your doctor right away, sounds like you have alot of inflamation.
It's possible that you have a pinched nerve in your spine and that it is causing your joint pain. Whether from the epidural or just the physical trauma from child birth you may never know but a chiropractor can probably help! I had a pinched nerve in my back and had numbness in my fingers, severe pain in my arms and my physician wanted to send me to be tested for arthritus. I went to a chiropractor and a few weeks later all of my symtoms were gone. It's worth a try and they don't push any sort of meds on you. Good Luck!
I gave birth with Epidural and thank god did not have any complications. There is a slight chance that Epidural can cause pain in the spine and even paralyze a woman, but that chance is molecule. From what I read on Epidural side-effects is that it should have happened right away, not a week later. Are you still taking Mortin or your pain medication? Maybe you had a dislocated hip? My cousin had that after giving birth and had problems walking and her spine hurt allot. My best advice would be to see your OB, or give him a call. I know that now is not the perfect time to be on medication but it is better to take care of it right away, later it might be too late.

Congratulations on your new baby.
I would go to the Doctors as soon as you can there may be something wrong you need to get that checked out.
Your condition has nothing to do with your epidural...and please ignore the the "old wives tales" about people becoming paralyzed from labor epidurals or suggestions that a chiropractor 's advice should be sought. Contact your OB-GYN doctor who will either treat you or refer you to a qualified physician for treatment.
You mean you weren't told epidurals could cause these problems later on? And you had a baby on the 21st of December? Where did your doctors study medicine? Even way back in the dark ages 21 years ago I was told that Epidurals can cause joint/back pain as well as migraines later on after birth. And you say this friend who is a nurse just learned of it? Where are these doctors and nurses practicing because I certainly don't want to need medical attention from them.
