Hey HSers! (Headache sufferers) Had my 5th nerve block on Friday and by Saturday afternoon Iwas at my grandson's 6th robot themed  b'day  party, in my robot costume, doing the robot dance, with 18       highly entertained kiddies!  NERVE BLOCKS ROCK!!!!  I asked the doc to show me a medical illustration of the occipital nerves that he injects and where they travel to on the head, and BINGO!!!  There is my headache zone!!!  Although I can't figure out for the life of me how my headaches ended up there when I had middle fossa surgery. The illustration also showed where the doc puts the needles when he does the block--not fun and pretty sore for about 24 hrs.

Anyway this should allow me to have a good time in Florida and maybe a few less headaches or NONE on my trip.

Stay warm everyone!
