I just had my 100th block done an it is the only way I'm still here I pray that they work for you . Jerry if you want an more info let me know.
Thank you! I am sure I will have more questions as they are planning these to be done regularly ( they said no sedation unless something goes wrong :confused) my biggest concern is the steroid, I don't react well to it. I always get thrush that won't go away and when it wears off I feel so yucky and some other stuff. So I'm a bit nervous about regular steroid injections.
Do you have any problems with the steroid?
