He is able to seperate CRPS I & II, fybromyalgia, trigger points, Brachial involvement and many things no other doctor would even think of.

He is the Guru on this type of issue. I am not sure that you just want ketamine and can have the treatment locally, but do you want to know from Dr. S it is going to help or not, what the dose, how long the treatments, how many???/
I never had the treatments, I talked to friends that have, and also the Lidocain IV too. He is not an advocate of Opiate therapy for pain

Do some research on threads of others that saw Dr. S their diagx, treatment options etc.
The man is brillant and compassionate. When he diagx my daughter back in 1996 after 2 years of pain, I could of and may have, hugged him.
I am biased though....
He is only a 2 hr drive but I never wasted a trip, for the vast understanding, knowledge and examination outcomes and information we received.

If you can swing it, I aboslutly would go. If you decide to cancel, man I would give my right arm to have the appointment for my son.

Hi Dianne, hope this finds you well, in certain cases, like mine, Dr. S supports and approves the opiate route. I have been on large doses of opiates for 3 years with dr. s blessign plus many ohter scripts, such as baclofen, soma etc.Take care, cz
