They were much more easily approved by my insurance company than ketamine infusions.

Good luck to you, I truly hope you feel better soon. xoxox Sandy
Hi Sandy,

I have been offered a lidocaine Infusion in the past but never did it. Right now I just have to find out what's going on with this left shoulder/arm. My right is the RSD side and I'm left handed so even writing is giving be alot of pain. I also had a carpel tunnel done on the left side in the middle of the whoe right arm nightmare. The carpel tunnel can come back and yes give you pain all the way up your arm to the shoulder. So I'll see what he says tomorrow.

I'll keep you posted.
