You never said what surgery you had but for me I had Stellette Gangleon Blocks for 3 of the surgeries and when they did the triggerpoint last year they did a bier block.

I honestly don't know what they used, I am thinking lidocaine but those Anesteologist as I said seem to know their stuff. I like them better then PM Drs. for blocks. A lot of them have offices nowadays where they do blocks.
