With this doctor even if the Ketamine fails he knows this disease and above all knows how to treat those with RSD with respect. I'm sure he has other tricks up his sleeve. If you've just acquired this disease, treat it quickly, the earlier the better. It took my wife 4 years for that to happen. Again good luck!!!
Thanks! I have bcbs too so I'm hoping to be able to get reimbursement for something back. I have had it for 5 years about but it's just now starting to spread within the last 6-8 months from what my dr says is extreme stress that has unfortunately I've had no control over in my life.... I'm starting with a pain therapist soon to work on controlling my stress levels better but also am looking forward to going to Florida to figure out my medical options.... Good luck to y'all too!
