Lately the hyper vigilance has been bad. I’m reactive and on edge. The exhaustion has been the same. At least it’s not getting worse. Tomorrow I’m getting a Stellate Ganglion Block injection. It calms down the sympathetic nervous system so should allow my PTSD symptoms to ease. By doing this my exhaustion might ease too.

It’s a day patient procedure. I’ve filled out all the forms. Just need to rock up at midday tomorrow after fasting from midnight tonight. As I’m on Lithium I will be thirsty. I just can’t wait to have it done. It worked well last time. Although, I did have a horror day of flashbacks a few days after the last procedure before totally calming down for a few months. Studies show it only works on some people with PTSD. I seem to be one of them.
