Cancer Pain

It is not uncommon for patients suffering from cancer to feel pain. Pain can be caused from the disease itself, or from the treatments used to battle cancer, like chemotherapy. In most cases, prescription oral medication can be used to help reduce pain. In some cases, however, pain medications can give patients side effects, including nausea, fogginess and the inability to think and act as they would without medication. For these select patients, there are many treatment options that can help reduce or eliminate the need to take oral medications. This allows patients to interact with family and friends and to enjoy special moments without the side effects from oral medications.

Treatment Options:

• Celiac Plexus Block
• Peripheral Nerve Blocks
• Lumbar Sympathetic Block
• Intrathecal Pump Implant
• Hypogastric Plexus Block
