I sympathasize with your concerns, having not been able to experience nerve block.
However, you feel hopeless, no?
Your nerve block isn't the only problem, and it's hard to do this, but focus on that other part of your problem, the hopelessness alone.
Will obsessing over how your doctor treats you make him treat you better? Has it in the past? If you can answer "yes" to these two questions, then feel free to scribble down on several pads of paper how demonic your sinister, apathetic, and uncaring doctor is, and all your problems will go away.
While you're doing that, see your pdoc and tell him how hopeless you feel, and he'll adjust your medicine and likely advise you to add/increase therapy with your therapist.
Hang in there. I've been you, and will be you again, and it sucks.
