Experiences with

Nerve block

Has anyone every had a hypogastric nerve block for endometriosis - I was just hoping to see if it worked or was offerer to anyone. My doctor wants to put me on amyltripaline which I am whole heartedly resisting but if I don't get pain relief soon I actually might just cry. D x

I am scheduled for a nerve block. I was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue.

I am currently waiting for my first nerve block to be arranged, but I am not optimistic this will result in a long term solution for me.

Has anyone had a pudendal nerve block? My endo specialist wants to give it ago to see if it offers me any relief from the chronic pelvic pain? I'm scared

I had a nerve block in my arm that they told me would last for 18 to 24 hours and it was already starting to wear off while I was in recovery. A few hours later and it was almost completely worn off. The nurse said they didn’t give me enough of the nerve block.

I have an appointment booked for next week with the GP and currently waiting for a nerve block injection as I'm under pain management. My question is, has anybody had similar to what I am experiencing and what is the cause? Thanks for reading 🙂

I had this before in February when I had a nerve block done. is this normal with steroids?? thank you.

Medial Nerve block recently done but no improvement - pain is worse if anything. Would welcome any views, comments, experience etc. I don’t know how much longer I can bear this. 😪 https://www.tarlovcystfoundation.org/faqs/

I did have a nerve block and said it could last until today don’t know if that natter. Plus surgeon told don I need another surgery in three weeks never told me that .

I am aware that a nerve block is typically applied during the operation, but I am particularly concerned about pain management returning home.

He also had a nerve block. Currently on 30 grams oxycodone every 4 hours. And has two 100 m fentanyl patches. Very weak from being in the hospital and now sleeps a lot with no appetite. I’m giving him protein drinks and trying to get him up to walk several times/day but it’s a struggle.

I explained that because I am under spinal consultant for neck issues, I have made an appointment for follow-up as this guy had suggested trying a nerve block to see if that sorts out the headache. Rheumy felt that was a good idea. He suggested referral to a neurologist if that does not help.

They had to do a nerve block to send me home. So for the knee replacements months later, I actually had to go back to pramipexole for almost 4 weeks before surgery. All of that to say, how do you move from this combination over to a low dose opiate?

On top of that, the nerve blocks I have been getting to try to help this pain for years, like pudendal nerve block, trigger point injections into my pelvic floor, si joint injections, and caudal injections — I have been getting them since August as well; nothing has worked to improve the pain at all

They will be doing a nerve block. Hopefully it will work. Maybe pain management might be helpful for you. I have found that the neuropathy thing confounds doctors. I also will be starting Trugap soon after 6 years on Ibrance. Oh the fun never stops. Also have hip pain. Onc thinks it's cancer.

He said if meds don’t work then nerve block & if still no joy that I would have to see a specialist which would be miles away as no one local deals with PN. I am getting worried regarding timescale & my osteopath thinks that the nerve is compressed somewhere.

I have been advised to try nerve blocks for chronic neck and facial pain - wondering if this procedure could also help with tinnitus!

I have also had a Celiac Plexis Nerve Block which provided some pain relief (~20%?). I am almost always in mild to moderate pain with severe flareups on occasion (every 4 weeks or so). I have had no pain medication prescribed outside of the ED and my quality of life is not good/poor.

Wondering if anyone has had spinal surgery (for stenosis and 3 bulging discs). I was diagnosed with CLL in February 2023 and am currently on watch and wait. I also had PMR at the time and was, and still am, on prednisone. For the past year I have tried to establish what the pain in my hips was. After

Hi all, new here and desperate for help. I started with bladder irritation, like UTI full bladder after urination feelings back in May 2023. Did all the tests for UT which came back negative. GP suspected GSM (Genito-urinary syndrome of the Menopause) so I was prescribed vaginal oestrogen, along with
