Default Steroid injection over brachial plexus - advice?
Hoping to ask for advice...I had a MRI after my tos surgery because I have had worsening pain since the surgery 6 months ago. It showed mild to moderate inflammation and I have been on high dose steroids for the last 11 days which have halved the pain but the side effects are significant.

My pain doctor has me scheduled for next week for three things to be done to my brachial plexus:
1. Steroid injection over the brachial plexus
2. Lidocaine injection
3. Pulsed radiofrequency neuromodulation

I was wondering if anyone has had any of these procedures done to them. If so, did any of them help? Did you have any complications? Any worsening of symptoms?

Your advice and experience is deeply appreciated!!!
