That said, I just checked out its webpage for clinical trials and didn't see anything relevant, searching under both pain and RSD ( http://www.ohsu.edu/research/rda/so/index.php) but that may not mean anything.
Alternatively, I have an uncle who is a relatively recently retired psychiatrist from a teaching hospital in Seattle. I don't know of he's in the country right now, but I will attempt to reach him on Sunday, on the assumption that he must know more than a few psychiatrists in Portland. Should I get a name, I will send you a PM.

OH & SU is the one I called. I also did not see anything on the web page, but figured I'd give it a shot. I have also called some hospitals in Seattle, Salt Lake, I have one in Florida that I will call on monday. Thank you so much for all of the info! You are the best!!!!
