Hello. I was diagnosed with Spinal stenosis in Oct 24. Months on I'm experiencing more pain, I find medications reccomended have no effect. I have been referred for a nerve root injection but the NHS are quoting months before that can happen. Can anyone comment on whether the injection is of help...if so I will go down the private line!!! Hope everyone is coping and doing as well as possible.
