Just got a nerve block for occipital neuralgia

El
I just got a nerve block and it was such a painful experience. I felt a burning sensation moving through my nerves I feel so horrible right now I don't know if I can get it done again. My mother said that's what the epidural felt like and I've decided I'm going to hold off on the epidural as much as I can because I never want to go through that again. I feel really sad that I have to deal with this and I'm only 22. I've had this pain for almost 4 years 😭
