Hi everyone,
I have a meeting (finally) next week with pain consultant following trigger point and steroid injections in July.
I subsequently had more local anaesthetic injections in August but I was actually over dosed by the private pain specialist and had a seizure lasting more then 90 mins. He had to use a series of sedatives and a tri lipid infusion to get me to come around. I was so frightened. Had to go to the theatre with a crash team.
After that I went and had more injections of local anaesthetic but they didn't work.
I want a more permanent solution instead of taking medication which is currently gabapentin max dose and amatryptaline 75mg with codeine or Tramadol which I do not take as I can't tolerate the side effects.
I want to have a nerve block or a denervation or anything more permanent so I can expand my family.
My sole motivation to do this is in order to have another baby but my pathway is obstructed by these medications and I'm not sure where to turn.
Any advice greatly appreciated
