You may be part of the small percentage of patients who have long term back pain and headaches after epidural anesthesia. For diagnostic clarity and advice, I think you'd have to consult both an orthopedic specialist to evaluate your back symptoms and a neurologist to diagnose the type of headaches you're experiencing and advise you. Appropriate testing will be done,if advisable.
