I was a delighted recipient of an occipital nerve block on wednesday.
I have had a debilitating headache for 2 years...it was actually my presenting sx in the ER that got me a CT, then MRI which ended up dx MS.
I realize now, that once someone dx a chronic disease, it everyone's nature to blame EVERYTHING on the dx.
In this case it was chronic rirritation of the Occipital nerve.. Oh had I known..
Now I want to get ALL of the nerves in my body blocked LOL
