There was a show on Discovery Medicial Channel concerning chronic nerve pain and they explained the use of nerve blocks with lidocane injections, some have already posted pro and con about these types of injections

Default thanks silver lady
thanks for info-death beign one of the side effects is scary since i remember now i had one of these when i had foot surgery 20 years ago and i felt like someone was taking me down the tunnel of death. i was alright and no one noticed any change in me, but i did and now i am terrified to consider another one. told doc and he looked at me like i was crazy.
i am so sorry to hear that you are not well and trying to help others at the same time

I had two selective spinal nerve root injections for herniated discs, which I have in addition to PN. I would not do it again. My current neuro says knowing what we know about me having PN, (sensory and autonomic small fiber) which we didn't know back when I had the injections, he would not recommend me having them. Again, I am not you, and we are all different, so every decision must be made individually, based on your condition.
