Epidurals

blood accumulation that separates the dura from the inner side of the skull is known as an epidural hematoma (blood swelling). The same process occurrence between the dura and arachnoid layers is a subdural hematoma

The spinal cord is surrounded by an extension of three layers of covering ("Dura") from the skull. The space outside of this "covering" of three layers is named the epidural area, "epi" meaning 'over' or 'above'... Epidural fat means fat outside the dura, and is reported on MRI's & CT's to indicate that something is pushing on the dura either from inside (like a herniated disc) or from the outside (like pressure from something outside the dural layer)... scar tissue is one thing that could displace epidural fat...

Every 30k -transmission fluid changed, air filter & cabin filter, pcv valve, engine coolant; 60k-serpentine belt, maybe spark plugs - they could be good for a while longer though, hoses-inspect and replace if needed.

I have had terrible pain for the past 10 months as a result of my spinal block. I was finally referred to a pain specialist, who told me it was probably arthritis....I'm 33! I have trouble picking up my child or doing simple things like putting laundry in the dryer. I never had a problem after my first child, delivered via c-section, but after the second child, and an anesthesiologist who couldn't get the needle placed right and tried to force it 3 times, I know have excrutiating pain every day!

Hydrocodone

An epidural hematoma occurs when a blood clot forms underneath the skull, but on top of the dura, the tough covering that surrounds the brain. They usually come from a tear in an artery that runs just under the skull called the middle meningeal artery. They are usually associated with a skull fracture.

One of them is true, you cant give blood for a full 12 months after getting inked. Not sure about the epidural though, shouldn't think it would matter.

I don't know the answer personally, but I was just looking for an answer on the same question. I found a couple websites that might help, but the range appears to be pretty wide. One website says about $350, while another says it can cost as much as over $2K.
