A member asked:

How long does it take for celiac plexus neurolysis with alcohol to take maximum effect (days or weeks)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Celiac plexus block: Hi, Generally about a week or two. The degree of clinical response to this procedure is very widely variable between patients with some getting complete relief with just one treatment and others getting little to no improvement in pain symptoms after multiple treatments. Hope this helps
