Hi.
I'm sorry to hear that you are not feeling well. I'm not sure this will help but I thought I would let you know how the nerve blocks worked out for me. I have RSD in both my legs so we did nerve blocks to try to decrease the pain. The original plan was to do a series of six on the right and then six on the left. The nerve blocks helped with my legs tempature (limbs are extremely cold) and provided short-term relief (2-4 days). We stopped at number 5 because the nerve blocks did not provide any consistant relief (didnt even last a full week). The doctor who performed the procedure on me said that six was the standard, so we stopped. I would suggest exploring your options, maybe bring up your concerns to the doctor. Have you had any changes since you started the nerve block series?
