My story (edited version) Medication and Pain Injections
I started having pain problems after an operation to the main vein in my right leg, I was warned that there was a risk of possible nerve damage as they would have to cut so far into my leg. I stated having pain straight after and was put on severadol twice a day 20mg to help. I had to go back in a few

Pain 24hrs aday everyday.
I went cold turkey off painkillers 2months ago as advised by my neruo dr. This is the second time I've done this last time was for 12 mths until my last Neruo put me Tramdol as he said there was nothing else he could do to help me. I had a nerve block injection 2mths ago which did help for about 2 weeks

Local Anaesthetics do not work. I am the only one or is this common?
I have now had to receive a local aneasthetic or nerve block and it has not work I still could feel pain with what their are trying to do. Is this part of the faulty peripheral nervous system we have or is it the Pregabilin I am on?

Just tried a nerve block injection, it went well but I'm struggling...
I had my first occipital nerve block injection on Friday. It went fine, though the back of my head and neck are still feeling quite sore. Bearable and definitely worth it if it works. But since then I can't seem to stop crying! Nothing to do with the steroids I'm sure, I just feel really emotional and

Words… searching, searching… any second now… … … almost… actually, nope.., it’s not going to happen. As if there’d be ANY words for me to explain how I feel writing this post. So please gear up with me, imagine the drum rolls and the biggest mountain you can imagine with me standing on the tippy top

Has anyone tried greater occiptal nerve block injections for migraine prevention?
My migraines have got much worse this year and I am now having on average one a week. I had an appt at the NMC yesterday and they suggested I try these injections - preventative supplements and medication haven't worked so far. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has tried them and whether they

Antidepressants and Statins.
I have been taking antidepressants for approx 12 years. (present dose is 300mg per day of venlafaxine). I had a heart bypass in 2010 and have been taking statins since then. Is it okay to take these together? Also, I've heard that statins can cause muscle problems. I have a lot of muscle pain

Has anyone experienced pudendal nerve block injections? I may have to have these.
I am in the scottish borders and could travel to Edinburgh to hospital there. I have pudendal neuralgia as a result of a mistake during surgery and don't want the same surgeon to gave me the injections.

Hi I am new to this.Wondering if anyone can advise me on Drs. who treat GAVE. for my husband.
He has GAVE (watermelon stomach). He is having transfusions every 2-3 months now, used to be 6 months. Also has laser once a year which does not do anything for him. We live on the mid North Coast NSW but we will go anywhere if we can get a Dr who specialises in this area. I also want to know if there

Nerve blocks
I have just had my second nerve block to help with my Fibro/Lupus. They really do make living these these conditions more tolerable. As anyone had these for a number of years and can you tell me if they are still effective or do you wear off more quickly the more you have?. Would welcome any comments
