Cortisone Shots

Today I went for my first cortisone shots. I just hope that they work. I am still sore, even though I had them about 6 hours ago. I am sure I will be all right. It was not at all comfortable to have them done. But at least I know that whenever I go for them again, I know what to expect. I just hope that I do not have to have them often. I am hoping to avoid surgery. I have a few slipped discs in my back and they are inflamed. I was hit by a car when I was 8 years old, and it is likely from that.
