Default I'm new to this site and struggling with RPS

Hello everyone,
I just found this site and I'm looking for some advice or sugesstions. I'm a social worker and was injured at work when one of my clients had a mental breakdown and was running in traffic. I put my arms out to block him getting hit by a car and he ran into my hand, tearing the tendon off the bone. The initial diagnosis was a sprain and I had to convince the doctor something was really wrong with my hand. Surgery was delay because of that and recovery had been slow and painful. I have never had a panic attack in my life before this, but the ongoing medical procedures are overwhelming. I had my first SGB yesterday and was completely traumatized by it. The block did not work and my neck and throat are very sore---and the pain in my hand is the same as before. I am scheduled for another on monday and I'm not feeling hopeful.
I really would like to get a break from pain, stress, and worry long enough to get some sleep/energy back. I'm open to any help or suggestions....thanks
