Ganglion Impar/SI Injection

[KC17]

First I would like to say thank you to those who are working so hard on the behalf of everyone who currently uses this forum as a place of learning/sharing/healing. As a "newbie" I've already been immensely impacted by many on this board who have been kind enough to answer my questions, and it is nice to know I'm not alone. So from the bottom of my heart thank you, thank you.

Second, although I posted this information previously, I was quickly informed of the change and wanted to repeat what I previously wrote regarding my nerve blocks/injections thus far. Two days ago I had a nerve block at the ganglion impar with a high dose of marcaine to maximize numbness to the region. My pain, which is primarily located in the clitoris, was not alleviated. Every area in my pelvic area went numb except for there and I am disappointed to say the least. On the same day I also received an injection into my SI joint with the hopes of reducing the irritation I have there.

If anybody has questions regarding either of these procedures I'd be happy to answer any questions, as I know I was a little in the dark prior to receiving them.
