    Yeah i actually asked if there were any long lasting side effects and i was told no! I get really bad sciatica and my right leg goes numb and tingly on and off all the time since i had it.

    Hey,

    The actual epidural site doesn't bother me anymore. However i still get bad sciatica in my right leg and it goes numb and sometimes quite painful on and off every few months. DS will be 3 in 2.5 months. I can't believe im still having troubles with it. I'm so glad i didn't need one for #3.

    I had one 15 years ago and every now and then it gives me grief. Awful things they are.... I will never, ever have one again if I can help it.
