I was given a interscaline block in my neck. The I attending physician was Dr. Myah Shaw. A neurologist named Dr. Mark Van Handel told me after surgery that the needle that was placed in my neck or that the way my head was placed caused a lack of blood flow and caused a stroke or a intense neurological dietz. This has caused me to have a Gatewalk and disfunction in my right hand. I am right handed. Dr Mark Van Handel told me that it may or may not improve. So far nothing has changed.
