Guest guest Posted February 13, 2002 Report Share Posted February 13, 2002 I've been having a series of procedures that I'm not sure of the results that I should get. And since I'm not getting any results except more pain, I was wondering if anyone else has been through the same series. No. 1 was an Epidural for pain in both legs, 2 was an Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion 3 was a Lumbar sympathetic Block for just the left side. These all were supposed to help relieve pain so that I could decrease the amount of Oxycontin I take 240 milligrams a day. There were no results except more pain. Now they want to do a Lumbar Block to the Left side. I'm really getting tired of the needle holes and the increased pain. They keep telling me that they expect results from this one. Has anyone gone through the series of these things with any positive results I have CMT in both legs and RSD also in both legs the 2 things are similar treatment wise. I also have been going to physical therapy for 16 years. and seen now 34 Doctors who all say the same thing except one who doesn't think I have either disease. HELP PLEASE.
