I am so sorry that you have to deal with all of the BS they are putting you through. The WC nurse and the doctor you are seeing are being paid by the WC people and they do not have your best interest at heart. Please take Loretta's advice and get your own doctor with experience in treating RSD patients.

One thing I learned real quick was that doctors who don't treat this monster do not have a clue what they are doing. There are some doctors who do know more, but play crazy when being paid by WC because they don't want to loose the money...They won't stay on the WC payroll long if they rule in favor of the patients.

I know that it is frustrating to deal with all of the hassels, but they want you to give up so they don't have to pay you. So hang in there, document everything possible, and never let them see you sweat!

Take care,

EJ
