MG, just out of curiosity, is the spinal space lower than the epidural space? When I had my caesar the anaesthetist tried to get the epidural in 4 times and kept hitting bone. On the fifth go he tried a lower space and he got it in but I didn't go numb (only one leg did) so ended up needing a general So I'm just wondering if it might have been the spinal space he tried on the last time?
