Default RSD spreading to face/head
So I've started the stellate and lumbar nerve blocks for the pain in the body. But that's for the neck down...

Is there anything short of ketamine infusion - my PM is a big ketamine guy - to deal with one's rapidly deteriorating forehead and around the eyes?

Dshue, I had a nerve block in my neck for that problem. It was very successful and elliminated the pain in that area for over a year. I would ask your PM aobut that good luck. cz
