I sure hope it works, Cindy.   They say the shots are diagnositic, at least that's what I heard from one of us hear and also at the anesthesiologist I went to.

Enjoy the weekend.   It's apple season and we're going out to get some today!
Hugs,

I went for the last round of temporary cervicl medial nerve branch block today...(big words..I KNOW! ;D)
I got some relief from the heavy head sore neck thing for about 4 hours.
I think this may work...going in for the real thing in about a month...of course my Dr. is gone for the next 3 weeks..Sooo
i probly will not see any lasting relief til Thanksgiving....And if it happens before then....Thanksgiving may actually be enjoyable this year!

Do any of you know the cost if you got trigger point injections?   I just started with those a couple weeks ago in my neck and shoulders due to muscle tension.
