Now that my pain is a little more under control I have noticed that my left side has worsened. Left arm is heavy and grip strength is weakening.

Dr. Fish's office at UCLA still has not contacted me for an appointment for SSEP and scalene block as referred by Gelabert (Dr. G gave me the referral he faxed over and had his assistant call them. I have decided to skip Dr. Jordan and Dr. Fish for now and go see Dr. Ahn.

Dr. Ahn's office has scheduled me for tomorrow morning. Dr. Ahn apparently does the same Ultrasound and scalene-pecminor-subclavius block procedures that Dr. Jordan does, and is covered under my insurance.

I'm looking forward to the appointment and will hopefully gets some relief and answers.
