Dr Todd
Thanks so much for caring. In my case I took the responsibility for what I needed.
I had a crown done 2 years ago.
My dentist wanted my pain management doctor to come to his office to give me anesthesia because he was afraid to stick me with a needle to give me the block I needed. My pain management doctor said "no way."
I told him to just give me the block but he refused.
So he told me to take a lot of my pain meds and he did the crown without anesthesia.
It really hurt when he drilled out that tooth without novocaine 
It hurt for a few days, but like someone said, it would hurt even if I didn't have RSD. But a little valium or xanax would help a lot.
You are a caring doctor to make yourself knowledgable about RSD.
By the way, I had surgery in Long Beach 3 weels ago.
There is a dentist in New Jersey named Mark who has severe RSD.
He only visits occasionally. I wish he were here now to talk to you.
His story is very sad.
Thanks for your kindness, Glad someone found us who does not have RSD !!
Hope
