Epidural for numbness -tomorrow morning

Nathan said:
My motivation for treatment is for numbness in my feet and legs, and not so much for pain, which I guess is much more common. Maybe numbness is more difficult, in bringing back sensation, if even possible. I don't know, I'm new at this. I do have chronic pain in my upper back/left shoulder, at some point I may seek treatment for that.

My numbness started after 'pain'. The old Neurologist told me it's because of Scoliosis, but the current Neurologist told me due to 'Stenosis' by looking at X-ray.
So, I really don't know which numbness causing, but with Gabapentin and Tramadol do the job, ... not in perfect, but about 75% in range.
In my guess, once getting older, there might be not much can done, ... like Cancer on today's medical intervention. I can live with numbness staying home, not much walking outside and driving, .. just in 15 minutes' drive. If some shopping needed, I plan to use 'Walker' or 'Cane.'
