I've had two spinal surgeries (at L5-S1), and three steroid injections since 2008. After my 2nd surgery I did notice a problem (though my surgeries were only 1 month apart so there had been no opportunity to test out the first surgery so to speak). I mentioned it to my doctor and he told me that because of the scar tissue and all the nerves involved that there could be lasting damage because of the scar tissue and inflammation from 2 surgeries so close together, but the only thing I could do was wait it out. Things improved, I had a tubal ligation as I was warned to never get pregnant again, my back is just not stable enough. Last summer I was experiencing pain and had the 3 epidural steroid injections, and did experience problems again, but after about 3 months things got way better. I was told that with inflammation etc, it can take up to 6 months for the steroid injections to fully take hold and settle into your system. Honestly, with my back feeling great, and all systems go again, hubby and I are having the best sex we've ever had. Hang in there, but don't give up. Consult your ob/gyn, a chiropractor, accupuncturist, physiotherapist if you don't see improvement within a couple of months. Is it a fear thing, I know I was afraid of reinjury for a long time, it's hard to let go. Can you achieve orgasm while masturbating, that might be the first place to start. This is not something you want to just give up on. Be vocal, it's important.

Please understand that ALL drugs damage the body. Most back surgeries fail at some point. It is crude technology and a solution used by the medical people as a desperate act of not understanding how the body works.

When you got the epidural and the problem happened, that should have been the first clue it was doing something to you. Most likely, your liver has been compromised trying to detox the poisons from the injections. Your liver makes cholesterol and ALL your steroid hormones are made from cholesterol; ALL OF THEM! Those include, testosterone, ESTROGEN, cortisol, aldesterone, progesterone, pregnenalone. As you can see, many are SEX HORMONES. Bile is what takes the toxins away from the liver. Doctors will tell you incorrectly, that you need to keep your cholesterol below 200 and preferably lower. For longevity, women need their total cholesterol above 240 to 300 range. That is according to the real experts on fats and oils, not some drug company trying to increase profits and indoctrinating doctors with bad science.

Each area of your spine has nerves that go to each of your organs. If you inject poison into that area, don't you think it will affect those nerves in some way? Obviously it blocks the way the nerves transmit their signals. Anytime you bypass the normal way toxins enter the body, such as injections into the blood stream, your body cannot metabolize the toxins and they stay with you and reside in the connective tissues.

Many chiropractors I know tell me constantly of all the patients that have had back surgery come to them for help. The help is to repair the damage done by the surgeons to allow the spinal cord to function like normal. It's much more difficult to repair damage than to address the original problem. Yes, sometimes, chiropractic will not work, but in most cases it's far better than surgery, especially knowing that only 18% of all surgeries result in some success for some period of time.

I believe to truly help you, you are going to need to see a very good chiropractor and get some good nutritional advice and then detox that liver. The surgery has also caused what is called an interference field. This is an energy blockage that needs to be remediated to reduce the chronic illnesses that will result from the operation.

good luck to you

Actually I have heard of this. You aren't alone. My friend had the lumbar steroid injections and said she felt all the same old feelings but just could not get over the top for orgasm for close to 6 months. She had given up hoping when Viola! all systems came back online. Good luck!

Very common side effect of the anti depression medications in the class of SSRI.
