It's a struggle to have rsd and Fibromyalgia. Having to fight with w.c. insurance makes it ieven more difficult.
My rsd started because of a work injury in 1997.
The laws have changed recently in the w.c. insurance companies' favor, not the injured party.
I too, lost my beautiful smile due to rsd and medications. I approached my w.c. attorney and w.c.adjustor but was told they wouldn't cover treatment for my teeth.
Hopefully some day the major effect that rsd has on our teeth and health, will be recognized and covered by not only w.c. insurance but also regular dental insurance.
