I get ESI epidural spine injections in the C/5....I do not get nerve blocks sorry if that is what he is doeing.
In my case the esi with flourascope at the hump on the upper back, I could point to the spot the pain generator, it is where I got the injection. I do not take anesthia, next time I will though. I had excellant results that I have not been back in 1 1/2 years maybe 2 1/2. I had cervoc genic headaches with a knot at the base of the skull that the injection helped the best.
I felt it go down my arms and blow up with pressure like a baloon. Not pain, but not pleasant either. Next time i would ask for sedation.

THey used depo medrol. It calmed down a lot of symptoms, but the most was the head pain miracle. It is trigger points I get a s tune ups, set for some on the 29th, but I will need another ESI for the traps and arms soon.

Wish I knew for sure what procedure you were having, maybe someone else will know and explain how they faired.
