Hi Frank
I have occipital neuralgia & i have nerve blocks every 12 wks these do help the pain but don`t take mine away, although people have different reactions.
don`t know if these are what your Docs are thinking of.
mine is caused by 2 brain tumours pressing on these nerves i also have trigemenial nueralgia but the blocks don`t help this.
hope this is some help to you.
keep smiling sophia
