My mom and I headed up to Madison, Wisconsin for my ganglia block at the Madison surgery center. My appointment was at 11 am. We left Rockford around 8:30am. Checked in and waited to be called.
I went in, had my vitals taken, changed and had my iv placed. I actually liked this one because they gave me a shot of lidocaine before inserting the iv needle. This way I didn't pass out. Then after that I was walked to the fluoroscopy suite. The procedure literally took 7 minutes, I was amazed. Granted, the sedative didn't do anything as it was too small of an amount to affect me.
I recovered for about 20 minutes and then was pushed in a wheelchair to the car and we left. I slept on the way home and basically slept the rest of the day to recover.
