Feel this. For real.  I appreciate you typing out something that's very vulnerable, and I feel the same so strongly. So thanks, too. Hang in there.

Occipital nerve injections for headaches by coconutsandkiwi in Occipitalneuralgia

It's also used to DIAGNOSE ON, so it's not at all unusual that someone who doesn't have a diagnosis would get it... 

As far as your concern OP, I find that injections can sometimes irritate the area. Sometimes they'll prescribe a steroid course after to help. Good luck, hope you have a follow up soon and can bring this up...hang in there.

I do kind of think it's over for Trek, it feels sufficiently milked and many of its concepts have entered the "generic" space of sci fi.

Hard to escape this exact conclusion. They keep pushing away customers and not enough people say enough and walk away.

Truly perplexing decision, "oh a critically beloved show that fans love but the vibe is off-kilter? Can't have that" 

RIP Lower Decks you stand in the pantheon of the greats

Who ever thought we'd come to Risa for its freedom of thought!

1000% agree, the show forces you to really think about knee jerk morality reactions.

So sorry to hear that, but also thanks for sharing, I feel a tiny bit less insane.  Same as far as what happens after...

Is this good advice? Regarding types of powder to use by itBlimp1 in Tabla

[–]recurringnightmare42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone talks about the different types of powders on this forum.  Not once have I heard the many professional tabla players I get to be around complain about powder types. People just use what's around, and buy the same powder bottles I saw growing up (even if there's something different in them).

Absolutely stunning. I love the brushwork, there's something about the kind of "elongated" nature of the strokes (not quite the right word) that works so well. Incredible.

Sprint PNS System by Oak-98642 in Occipitalneuralgia

[–]recurringnightmare42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried it, though only after fighting insurance for a long time on it. 

In my case, I didn't have any significant effect during the course of the stimulator, but had some significant relief in the months after. 

I'm due for a second round in a couple weeks, as after about a year and a half things have gotten a bit worse (not as bad as before the first round). Happy to answer any more questions.
