It's not likely. It could be one of the other "caines": Marcaine,Lidocaine, etc...anesthetics like Novacaine that you get at the dentist. Pharmeceutical grade cocaine is used medically but more for nose,throat surgeries.
My dentist gives me my shot and see another patient, by the time he got back to me I was fully numb. and the numbness last for 8 - 12 hours. I am highly allergic to lidocaine it puts me into anaphylactic shock, I have an epipen but sa that I don't have to use that I just make sure everyone is doing their job and I always wear my medic alert bracelet.
I have basal cell carcinoma that is infiltrated and has been on my nose for three-plus years now I am scheduled for Mohs surgery on May 9th and reconstructive plastic surgery on the 10th.
however, they were unable to get any calcifications in the 12 samples. The doctor apologized and said the lidocaine washed away the calcifications. The final report stated that there was stromall fibrosis without evidence of microcalcifications. The same report was then amended 8 days later stating "although no microcalcifications were identified, the calcifications seen on mammogram may have represented milk of calcium which may have dispersed on biposy".
I would see if your ortho or pain specialist can give you an injection of marcaine or place an access drain into the knee where you can inject lidocaine or marcaine to numb the entire area every so many days? You may be only in your 30s my friend, but.....sorry to say......you need a knew knee. May as well look into getting it done now, or you'll have to deal with pain for years to come, or go back on the narcs till you get one.
My question is, taking into consideration all these medications and the fact that I can sometimes taste the lidocaine or marcaine with an in office instillation, is there any chance these medications could have contributed to the neuralgia? I need to know if there could be any type of an attack again with this procedure?
Thank you for your help.
t imagine having another surgery and am now seeing a surgeon who is giving me weekly abdominal injections of lidocaine and marcaine, and just yesterday prescribed Nuerontin to me. The surgeon says that I have nerve damage from the surgery that nerve damage combined with the scaring in the abdomen and mesh area is what he thinks is the cause of my intolerable pain.
I had a lot of tests done to figure out my CONSTANT URINATION (about 40 times a day). I did have some burning during urination, but nothing really painful and it would come and go.
They did the cystoscopy and discovered my bladder wall was inflammed, so I was on Bactrim for 6 months. I also had a flow test done (forget what they call it) where you actually stand up and urinate while the x-ray machine takes pictures. Turns out I had a slightly fallen bladder....
Here is what I suggest: go see an orthopedist or podiatrist. Have the physician give her a total ankle block (anesthesia block using lidocaine---marcaine will interfere with a child's growth plate and should not be given for local anesthesia). If she has pain 15 minutes after the block, she may have psychological issues. If I gave an ankle block to a child or adult, I could cut open the foot and use power tools on the bone and the person would not feel pain!
My father attend a pain clinic once a week. I know the clinic uses Marcaine in their injections, however, is it humanly possible to receive 40 injections per sitting????
Over the last few months my mouth has been burning--it hurts to eat anything. Mouth does not appear physically changed except deeper fissures in tongue. Now, have loss of taste. Initially I thought it might be from the "appliance" I now have to re-seat my TMJ but I've had that for six months and that dentist says it's really not possible since it is just acrylic.
ve had quite a few stellate ganglion blocks and have had some success. They thought the lidocaine infusion might help the other pain I deal with and kill two (or more) birds at the same time so to speak.
KittKat23-78, Sorry the infusion didn't help you!! I hadn't heard about having several a few days apart; I'll have to ask about it. Mine is (at least one) being paid for by worker's comp. I'm hopeful but also trying to keep things realistic and in perspective.
left pointer finger, at work i stuck a cedar sliver under the nail past the start point of the nail. I attempted to pull it out and it broke off. only 1/4 inch came out so a good 1/2 inch is still in there i can see it thru the nail. I attempted to cut and split the nail with razor blade but once i got part way thru nail it hurt bad. my co-worker gave me a new 10ml bottle of lidocaine, he uses it to give himself stitches.
Has anyone ever been prescribed this for genital outbreaks or PHN? My doctor did for PHN. I just tried it for the first time it hurt to apply and doesn't feel the most pleasant now. Has anyone ever used this and what was your experience?
I am a 25 year old female and I had a seizure while having dental work done about 3 weeks ago. I had been given lidocaine and nitrous oxide. Following the appointment, I went to a neurologist and had a CT scan and an MRI done. Both showed no brain abnormalities. I had eclampsia 4 years ago and had seizures which resulted in the early delivery of my child. Aside from my seizures 4 years ago, I had no previous history of seizure disorder.
I would feel a whole lot better without using any anesthetic during the procedure since I had a terrible experience back in 1989 when I was given a skin test for Lidocaine and Meprivacaine? both WITHOUT EPINEPHRINE,YES,WITHOUT EPINEPHRINE and I made sure of that before the skin test.They had to discontinue the Lidocaine because of heart side effects.But they finished with the other one and they thought that everything was fine and sent me home..The next day,BOOM! they hit with a vengence..P.
Re: Lidocaine Enemas. I am warning everyone to be careful. My brother just died 3/31/12 from a lidocaine enema. He was only 28. (Lidocaine Intoxication) Lidocaine in liquid form. I don't want anyone elses loved ones to die like this. I hope everyone will be careful when dealing w/lidocaine. it is a dangerous substance when not used properly.
