We are trying to do a few more less invasive things before the temp scs which is a possibility as well. Anyhow can anyone tell me how they responded to the iv and what relief if any,for how long,and side effects?Thank you


daniella.. could please tell me what Lidocaine infusion is? i had a beir block and what they did was put a cuff on my lef which made all the blood run out of the veins in my foot and then put in a iv in my foot and in the iv was Lidocaine, they did that for 1/2 hour. is that the same thing? thank you michelles
