Thanks for your replies. They were completed with conscious sedation. I do vaguely remember talking to the doctor. Not sure about what. Due to my schedule I was going every other week for the first 3. If they want to do more blocks I will be off of work for the following 2 weeks so that they can be done right after each other. What was in the block cocktail that you had. I did ask about different meds in the block and something that can be added to make it last longer. I tend to have many questions. He feels he is the expert and knows best. I'm sure he is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing, but. . . .

Hope everyone had a less painful or uncomfortable day.
