Hey guys.

Have any of you ever had a stellate ganglion block? I’ve been having bad anxiety chest pains for over a month, and it’s constant 24/7. (Yes I have ruled other medical causes out). It never leaves. I have MS and I’m pretty sure my vagus nerve was damaged in my last attack and now my fight/flight is broken. I know the block is said to have worked for people with medication refractory anxiety &amp; ptsd and I’m pretty sure I qualify. 

A pain specialist I saw this morning said that he couldn’t give it to me and that the risk outweighs the benefit. This state of living is not stable for me and I’m quickly losing hope.

Anybody out there with legit damaged nerves that has had this procedure? Or something similar that has helped them? I’m already taking cymbalta which doubles as a nerve pain medication and anti depressant, along with other meds. I don’t want anymore pills. 

Someone please help me
