LIdocaine Infusions for Pain Are Back For Me!

I have been battling PMPS since I woke up for surgery on  1/11/11. I had been receiving Lidocain IV infusions since the summer of 2011. The pain doctor that does them left the practice in December 2014 and I have not had a lidocain infusions since because I was told that the new dr. didn't do them, they told my pcp's office he WAS, then I would call and be told no, he didn't. Brian has been suggesting I call the pain clinic just in case things changed. Well, another dr. quit the firm and the newest one DOES do lidocaine infusions. I  may strongly dislike the clinic itself and it's phone receptionists, but I do get great benefit from the Lidocaine IV's. 

I can't get one until the end of July, but at least they have a doctor that does them again!

One doctor told me they will eventually not work, but that hasn't happened yet. Maybe after this 7 month break, they will work even better! I wish I wasn't so stubborn and called sooner!
