Default When to ask for LSB
Hi All!
So, It's my turn to get Stellate Ganglion block tomorrow. This
makes number 23 for me so I'm not really afraid of that.
My P.M. Dr. & I have talked about CRPS/RSD spreading to my
left foot. I know it's more common to spread to opposite limb
first, but not here.
Thankfully the spread is slow, I take mega amts. of Vit C, magnesium
etc. I can still walk but the pain is increasing.
Opinions?
At what point should I get LSB as well? Wait until it's more pronounced?
Nip it in the bud? Risks vs. benefits?
I know I was scared to death about the SGB risks in the beginning & now
it's pretty routine.

P.S. I should have husband take video of me after SGB, I get sedation.
AZ-Di all wobbly. loopy & droopy maybe I'll say something funny?
