I'm going for a lidocaine infusion this Saturday, honestly feeling anxious about it. Anybody had this done before?
Any advice?

Hugs xx

I've had about 3 infusions of lidocaine. The 3rd was the worst one. On a good note they do help.

Yes two lots of 5 days infusions helped with nerve spasms and tremors calmed things a bit for a while .....🌹

I'm curious if there's anyone out there who also has been diagnosed with Lupus, Sjogren's, Reynaud's and Fibro. I was diagnosed with the first three in the past few years and Fibro 9 years ago. Lupus is the newest diagnosis.
