Have You or Someone You Know Had Side Effects or Parlysis From an Epidural?

They had me sign a paper saying that I understand the risks, etc, etc. I got it after 24 hours of natural, no drug labour. After he was born, my left leg did not work properly. Now my baby is 5 months old and it still gets stiff. If I go a few days without taking my daily walk, my left leg loses its full range of motion. If I bend or change his diaper on a surface like the couch that is too low, when I try to stand up my back is in alot of pain and I cannot stand up fully for about a minute. I have to stay bent over until the pain leaves enough to let me stand. It hurts. My right leg does stiffen, but not as bad as the left. It is ok in the mornings, but if I go a few days without exercise it gets worse. When I go hiking I have to use extra effort to get my left leg up inclines... I help lift it with my hands. I went to a chiopracter and tried to help out. My only other option would be lazer treatment for nerve damage, but I can live like this, so I wont' pay for that. Anyone else???
