I had a ruptured disc a few years ago. No fun. I know some of what you are going through.
I had therapy but no shots and everything has been back to normal for several years.

I hope that you are aware that only about 30% of patients experience relief from cortisone shots. Please don't let your doctor continue them if you don't has substantial relief within 48 hours of having the injections. My prayers are with you because I was in the same boat with my lower back. If you require surgery go to a neurosurgeon and not an ortho-doc. Again, experience.

Prayers and positive healing energy headed your way.
