@ajsmith1273 I will be having my nerve block shots Jan 12, 2026. I plan on asking about Valium/Modrol dose? sounds as if some have been helped. This past month has been simply
awful with the Holidays. I have been using the Pivotal Therapy Pad Amazon $45.00 cradle neck
the pressure points feel good across my neck followed by faithful ice packs.I do plan on asking about a Occiptal Neuralgia
Specilist, most know about reg. Migrains but don't completely understand our type of headache.
I have quit taking over counter med, they do not touch my pain. Muscle relaxors seem to help
a little, I will report next week. Has anyone ever taken Amitriptyline for pain?

@suszy39 thanks so much for the info - I hope you get something positive out of the procedure and can hopefully learn some helpful things from the doc, I have an appt with another spine and neck specialist to see what they think, just have to keep trying!
