Sorry it came down to it like that with your doc. They came be such jerks! IMO, if he was such a "top doc" in rsd treatment then he should be willing to discuss all of these things and not get all defensive. It's inexcusable to take that attitude to begin with and then to not be able to be reached by patients?! What kind of doc doesn't have a phone?!?!? *rolls eyes*

You did the right thing. You're doing the work and looking at all your options and wanting to discuss them and being proactive. We all have to do this and not be afraid to fire them or say no. After all....it's our lives and our bodies, not theirs!! People like that make me a little hot under the collar.

I wish for you a fantastic doc who will think of YOU first and willing to do anything it takes to help you.

Big Hugs,

Karen
