Implantable neurostimulator for chronic pain

Hello all!

Has anyone ever had intravenous lidocaine? A new pain doctor is recommending it and the articles on the web make it sound like a 50/50 proposition at best. Would love to hear from anyone who had this treatment and how it worked.

Many thanks!

Mark

Infused how? I mean, I understand intravenous (retired RN) but not understanding it re chronic pain? Lidocaine has a very short half life and too much can be toxic. So I’m going to look this up.
