I'm sorry that your pain (on Tuesday) was still at a 6. I hope it is has declined by now. Thanks for the longer history on your pain. I have had doctors suggest that my pain signals are off (nociplastic pain), but I am always deeply skeptical of that interpretation. I can point to the exact source of the pain, and it is always slightly tender, so it clearly feels like there is a small part of the nerve that it still slightly entrapped in a ligament. Nonetheless, I suppose that it's a possibility. Has a pain doctor evaluated you for nociplastic pain? It sounds like you have tried a lot of different procedures. But, I agree with Violet that the nerve blocks are a risk if they're not needed for diagnosis. And I also agree that physical therapy is of limited use if your nerve is entrapped. Have you considered pn surgery?
