Thanks,

I was really hoping I could get some insight on this. I've tried researching this on the net and can't find details. Is it called a scalene block? Will it hurt badly? Will I be sick like with anesthesia? All I know is I go to a pain mgmt doc twice, he tells me I have TOS, and I get an appt made with the nearest specialist 3 hours away! I'm stressing about the whole situation.
I just stumbled upon this board and hope to read thru different posts to find more info for the future. As for now, I'm very scared and unsure of the whole unknown.
