I agree with Catra......it is a "Neurologist" that treats disorders related to the brain.

I would recommend you try to get an appointment with one. But with one caveat. Not all Neurologists are well versed in CRPS. If you can research a bit and call around and try to find a Neurologist that understands the sub-specialty of CRPS, that would be by far a better choice than a general Neurologist.

I wish you all the best. Can't imagine what full body CRPS must be like.
I agree so much. You need to see a neurologist or neurosurgeon. Either of the two will be OK.

Maybe call an RSD support group in your area and have them recommend a specialist to you.
