I believe that this is the reason they donot want to do blocks. I believe Anesteologist can do better blocks.

I know some of you have good PM Drs. but I have seen several and donot want one for my care.

I see them pushing SCS's as soon as some people get RSD. Instead of trying less invasive things.

I totally disagree with the blocks not helping an awlfully lot of people. One is for diagnoses but they usually do series of thems to help put the RSD into remission.

For a condition that has no cures, it all makes sense if in the body of the beholder, it helps.

My blocks did help. I have no regrets, even after 6 SGB. They are not perfect nor permanent, for me. I would have considered something much worse if the SGB's had not been so helpfull and will not hesitate to repeat when necessary!
