Hello!!! I have had a total of 3 symathetic nerve blocks done....
The first one I was numb for about 7-8 hrs, helped ALOT with my pain... The second one I was numb for almost 24 hrs, helped MORE with my pain... The third one I had done a little over 3 wks ago, and I was numb for close to 30 hrs!!!!!


I seen my Dr. for my follow-up appt 2 wks ago, and he said that I am in FULL remission with my RSD!!! Although, he still wants me to continue on my Neurontin and Lexapro untill I see him in 3 months!
I have been pain FREE for over 3 wks now!!! MY accident/incident was on July 22, 06... I was diagnosed with my RSD 1 month of July 22... I have had RSD for 6 months now...
The symathetic nerve blocks that I had done, helped me EXTREMELY!!! I am a firm believer in having these done.... I know that every person's body is different, with reactions ect... This is just my opinion!
I have the UPMOST respect for ALL my Drs, they are nothing but WONDERFUL!!!
Always,
-Heidi
