I'm my wife's advocate who has RSD. As someone who does not feel the pain, the stress dealing with doctors, hospitals and insurance was killing me. Within two years my hair turned gray. I can not even imagine someone with RSD and also dealing with these issues and Workmans comp also, whom, by they way operate on the premise of deny deny deny. However, October 1, 2013 may offer many some hope of reduced stress. Whether one agrees with Obamacare or not, the fact that these exchanges will open up to the public. Costs are based on a income sliding scale, Pre-conditions no longer apply and no cap on coverage. There's plenty of propaganda out their but what I have gathered so far, rates in some states will drop 50%.

I wish you reduced stress painman2009. Hopefully, and in time, issues will simmer down. It just takes time and patients.
