So I get up and eagerly check in to see if Anthony has explained his lidocaine post. ANTHONY!!!!!! Put us out of our misery!!!!
I've been getting Lidocaine injections for pain where my neck fracture healed. After yet more MRIs and CT scans, they determined the bone healed, but impacted the adjacent nerve which is causing the pain. Finally, they did a nerve ablation with yet more Lidocaine. The pain is reduced, but not gone, so I'm getting frustrated.
The next step is for the Neurosurgeon to go in and just cut the nerve, but we're not there yet.
Thanks for asking. Lidocaine is my word of the month, that's all
