Specializes in Family Medicine

See Epidural Dr: For continuity of care it is very important to call the Dr. who did your epidural as they need to know any post-procedure complaints/pain and they should see you in follow-up up to begin. If your cycles continue to be erratic with pain, then the Gyn should evaluate you for that. Best wishes.
