I would think that everyone is aware of the 14 unfortunate deaths from the fungal infected epidural cortisone injections causing meningitis. I am aware that epidurals are often ineffective or only give temporary relief while having possible

I guess we learn something everyday because I was not aware that cortisone is not approved by the FDA for injection into the epidural space of the spinal canal.
