Thank You both. I did let the Dr doing the blocks know, but he is just the one doing the blocks. The treating Dr is an Orthopedist, who he was sent to after his failed surgery. He was the Dr who DX him with the RSD.

Jimbo- How has this affected your truck driving? With the new CSA2010, I think just the meds would disqualify him not to mention the lack of movement of his shoulder.

The shots have helped the shoulder but caused pain where he didn't have pain. He has not been amused by them. Two more to go! But at least he can stand to have cloth on the shoulder again which is a good thing since winter is here. He also has reacted poorly to cool weather which is odd since he is a MI boy. They have also helped the swelling,for a short time atleast.

I do know that I will be having shoulder surgery myself next month and I fully expect to be taken care of RSD or not!
