I have a herniated disc in the base of my neck from lifting children. I have been doing Physical Therapy for a year now, and have had multiple chiropractic appointments, all to no avail. The pain for the last four/five days has been so bad I can barely do ANYTHING. I know doing childcare only makes it worse. I'm so frustrated that this is preventing me from enjoying the one thing I have a passion for: Taking care of children! Thank God for an awesome assistant who has been so very helpful during this time!!

Tomorrow I go see pain management for the first time. I'm scared to death they'll give me a steroid shot, but know I might need to do it. Has anyone ever had this done? Any tips, side effects you've had or awesome testimonials?
