Spinal or epi?

[rufalina]

With mine, they gave me both. The spinal was used as the anaesthetic, with the epi in place JIC the spinal didnt work, so I could try to avoid a GA.....
And they also said if there were any problems, they could keep the epi on for pain relief if required...
Good luck with working out your plan.

eta = I had the spinal at about 3pm, and I was up and in the shower the next morning at about 9am, and only waited till then, as I had to wait to get the catheter removed and the nurses were busy... I have no idea when the feeling came back to my legs as both DS and I slept for 12 hours that first night... Also, I really had very little pain and was very mobile after. Not sure if this was due to the spinal or not but if I need a section again I will def be requesting the same anaesthetics.
