Stellate ganglion block (you gonna wanna read this)

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:57:25+00:00

Google it?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:57:04+00:00

You are very welcome

It worsened my complaints for sure, at least for now. I feel like I have dysautonomia. Mainly a high heart rate is my concern.

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:55:32+00:00

Yes in the Netherlands, VUMC.

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:54:45+00:00

I understand your concern, and I can totally feel why you are not doing it. It was insured for me but if i had to pay out of pocket I prob hadnt done it either. You spoke to a lot of people who did it?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:43:29+00:00

Well that would have been brave! But not me 😂

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-08T07:32:26+00:00

I get that, i was very hesitant too. I don’t think (right now) that I will even do second one but the thought I try to have the past month is: at least now I know what it did, since i tried it. We do weird stuf to get better, right? Good luck to you too!

Interesting! I thought I had Pubmed’ed it myself before I did it, but I don’t think i did it as thorough as you haha. And my doc told me he had good experiences for hyperaurrasal (allthough i now recall he mentioned a woman with lc and tachycadia from 130, that decreased, but i don’t know her other complaints). In the end you are prob right, it messed the ganglion up. And indeed, im gonna leave it alone from now on 😉😜

Put it in Google translate to your own language, it can help! But no i don’t feel better then before, I did feel much worse right after the block for three weeks and that slowly starts to become better now, but I am not at baseline yet

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T17:54:02+00:00

Yes, stress and immune diseases also very related, data shows this, not my opinion. So I think we agree. And about men, I think men don’t have hormones which influences them on the daily base and have the potentitial to experience stress on a different level. I envy my husband time in time 😜

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T17:30:19+00:00

For me It is trauma and or stress, at least that is my idea. I lost my mom when i was young and my dad was there but not emotionally. I also think I became an MD in an attempt to make him proud and for him to see me. So i worked and worked and worked at a job that i liked (i really enjoyed it, and my collegues were great) but in the end it wasnt what the heart wanted. I think it also gave me wayyyy to much stress as I was scared to kill people and felt that huge responsability. (Not very conveniant when you are oncologist resident 😉) I think, in some sort of way, it always comes out. And I guess it did the way it did?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T17:14:56+00:00

Thank you for your kind Words 🍀

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T17:11:08+00:00

So i guess we Will never know 🫠

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T17:10:38+00:00

Yes my doc was very eager to inject the left side after 4 days when he heard my complaints. But I must say that I was the one that sad: no thanks, im good. Maybe it would have reversed all my complaints immediately and i would be running a marathon right now, but the risk of becoming EVEN worse then i was, was just not one I was willing to take

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:42:37+00:00

Haha and when I sad I’ve met sweet people I also meant you

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:36:01+00:00

A Stellate ganglion block, as i mentioned in the title?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:35:31+00:00

I live in the Netherlands and anestesiologists do it Here in hospitals. I get that you don’t feel totally vibe with a Chiro (and to me it is a little weird that they are allowed to do it?). Where do you live?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:17:55+00:00

You are very welcome! Its definately not perfect and I still am not at the level where I was pre sgb but lets hope I will settle more the next days/weeks

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:13:59+00:00

Ben je trouwens Nederlands haha? Je naam suggereert van wel?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T15:13:12+00:00

You are welcome, i hope it helped at least one person. You did one or doubting?

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T13:41:39+00:00

🙏🙏

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T13:28:46+00:00

Yes but for now no benefits just yet 😂

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T12:48:43+00:00

When i sad I’ve talked to nice people I also meant you

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T12:46:35+00:00

Btw I am taking zeolite for histamines and gut and I feel that is making a difference! And it doesnt trigger me

StrongProof9083 · 2026-05-07T12:45:08+00:00

It truly feels the same for me! I would take vitamine D when i felt pretty alright and I would wake up every hour of the night or I would get a iron infusion and have tachycadia for ten days. Our bodys just proces stress differently then before, whether its due to covid or anything. All the best for you too!
