stellate ganglion block
has any one had a stellate ganglion block recently? i saw some of the older posts that were very scary but i was wondering if the procedure has gotten any better or if it is something that should be avoided or very cautious about. i am scheduled for one next week. it is at a pain management clinic. it was explained how it would be done, but it frightens me to have a needle in my neck!! EEEEEKKK
