I was dx with CRPS I 15 months out, and told that too much time had passed for blocks or stimulator to do any good for me. I feel "kicked to the curb" as I wasn't give the opportunity to have treatment other than pain medicine.

However, from what I have read in here, the blocks don't always last or work..so, maybe I should be glad..I don't know.
