Sounds like you are talking about Lumbar Sympathetic Nerve Blocks.

These work for some and don't for others. Some have great relief while some have little or none.

Unfortunately there are no two people with RSD that it affects the same and no two that respond the same way to medications or treatments.

For me, I had can't recall how many blocks I had... I think it was 7.. it was so long ago. The first one lasted a few hours with fairly good relief. After that, I had zero relief and added pain.

I sincerely wish you the best...
