We will try our 4th nerve block Monday. We wonder if it is worth doing them. Thanks for your encouragement. Jerry

That has to be disappointing...but don't give up. I hope the next one has success like or better than the second one. Even if they stop after the next one and want to wait a few months in between...it may still be worth it seeing as she did get some relief from the one block. Only you guys can make that decision though. But please don't let her stop trying to find relief. Keep supporting her with therapy and other things that she can try to do to help. There is unfortunately no miracle cure...just gotta keep fighting.
