Hello Everyone,
I have RSD in my hands/arms, feet/calves for more than 2 years now. I tired a couple of sympathetic ganglion and lumber blocks and oxygen therpay. I had some relief for a few day at best from the sympathetic nerve blocks. I had very good relief from the oxygen therapy for a good period of time. For now, I have managed my pain with medication, mainly Lyrica. My pain is manageable. Should i stop trying other invasive procedures or continue to pursue other treatment options hoping for a remission?
Have anyone try other types of nerve blocks such as cervical/lumbal epidural, caudal, paravetebral or brachial plexus blocks containing local anesthetic and corticosteroids. I got this information from an article written by Hooshang Hooshmand, MD and two other doctors. If you have tried these options, would you please share your experiences.
Take care,
