Default unable to do a block .......anyone ever hear of this??????????
frank goes to MIPM....michigan institute of pain management.........

have you ever heard of a block not being able to be done because of a large esophogus and a short neck???????????????????????????//

they tried and tried to give frank the sgb, but to no avail.........they poked his neck at least 14 times, and then had to abort the procedure..............the doctor was so disappointed, and told frank he could not move the esophogus over enough to get to the ganglion.................so instead of helping ease franks pain, they increased it immensely.........so disappointed ........

they are now going to get him in at the U of M pain management hospital...........which is a GOOD THING, but hopefully that won't take forever.............grrrrrr

Claudia,
I hate to hear this, and really hate that they have increased his pain.. Maybe he will have success with the new clinic, and I hope he doesn't have to wait weeks to get in.

My Prayers are with you and Frank, and if there is anything I can do all you have to do is let me know.. If you need to talk or vent just let me know.. Hang in there..

Love Ya,
Janet
