Make it easy for your doctor. Email a link to the study to her office manager or print it out and fax it if she says no right off. That way they have it and not just your word. I can't imagine she would say no after that. Seems like it would be a liability to keep a patient on a med they are asking to switch because of a link to another condition. if you continued to worsen that could backfire on your doctor. I think it is even mentioned in current Medscape general info on CRPS so no longer impossible for a doctor to find....

I am glad I read your post and could be of help! good luck!
