Well, I've never heard of a 'Fluoroscopy'? So, I can't really answer your questions. I get occipital nerve blocks, (left side) and they are over pretty quickly with no sedation or anything like that, when my neuro does them. He just 'feels' for the nerves, and it hurts like mad when he presses on them, but his injections have been really helpful, and there's been no problems afterwards.
So, what is this 'Fluoroscopy' like, what do they do? I guess it's not used for the occ. nerves then? I've never heard of it...
