I see Dr Louis Spagnoletti, he's located in Marlton NJ and he is fantastic. I was diagnosed in Sept 2004, and have been seeing Dr Spag since Oct 2006, was seeing a doc prior to him that called himself a pain mgmt specialist but was afraid of the dea or something, expected to try to control my pain with very low level drugs and trigger point injections. By the time I got to Dr Spag I was in pretty bad shape. Since I've started with him, he's worked very closely with me (with me, not to me) to get a cocktail of scripts that worked to control my pain to the degree that I could work a full time busy job and even occasionally do some things around the house, after work, etc. Over the last few months my condition has worsened, and about 3 weeks ago the same level of symptoms I had at onset recurred. Dr Spag got me immediately in to see Dr Rosen (in Jenkintown PA) and I'm scheduled for my first symp lumbar block next Wed. In the meantime heavier scripts to help with the pain and to sleep. I would recommend Dr. Spag to anyone having chronic pain issues, and after seeing Dr Rosen yestersday I would highly recommend him as well. Having spent way too much time with a less than stellar doc, I know how important it is to form a relationship with a dr that knows RSD and chronic pain.
