Hypogastric plexus block and Caudal Epidural

Hi everyone,

I hope you’re all taking good care of yourselves. On Tuesday I had a procedure called a hypogastric plexus block and caudal epidural to help with my pelvic pain and leg pain from endometriosis. I wondered if anyone has had either procedure and could share their experiences both with recovery time after (I’m feeling very sore and as if I’m in an endo flare) as well as outcomes?

Thank you very much - Tyler xx
