A member asked:

Would most doctors who provide stellate ganglion blocks do it for ptsd? i'm trying to find someone, i'm paying cash and able to travel anywhere.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

That's extreme: Why not try something like beta-blocker therapy? Something that's been shown to have an effect? Propranolol or another similar type medication could help significantly. I would not recommend an invasive procedure before other avenues have been explored. Hope this helps.
