i've had lidocaine a bunch of times when i've required sutures to numb the area, and also at dentist for a filling. the injection is sort of painful (stinging/burning sensation for about 10 seconds) so if you're sensitive to pain i recommend maybe clenching your fists or taking some deep breaths. do you mind me asking why you need it?

oh, you're talking about an infusion my bad. is it for chronic pain? can you let me know if it's of any help? i really need to look for other options than opioid medications for my chronic pain bc they're not helping anymore.

I have looked into it but the cost was too much for me since it is not covered by insurance. $500 an infusion

Hi. I am actually on the waiting list for a lidocaine infusion. I'm hoping and praying that it will help 🙏 I shall let everyone know! Xx
