RSDer,
I am so happy for you. I have had to deal with RSD since the spring of 2003. It started in both feet & my PM Dr feels it is due to the mess to my back/spine.

I am curious if your insurance would have paid for the ketamine infusion treatment or if it would have been out of your own pocket?

Again, good luck with it all. And I hope you just continue to get better but watch out so you do not get hurt again anywhere. I have heard that RSD can come back with a vengence if you are injured again, anywhere.

msdrea,
Congrats to you also. Again is your treatment from the doctor in LA paid for by your insurance or out of pocket??

Either way I am happy for you. My PM doc over there in Mill Valley suggested one in the Bay area for Ketamine infusions, but he had to be paid out of my own pocket. I just don't have money like that at all. We get by on Jack's SS & my disability payments from SS & CIGNA. Believe neither one is all that much. CIGNA subtracts what SSD pays me out of the total amount they owe me. Thankfully SSD doesn't do the same or we would be screwed. I loose the CIGNA payment when I turn 62 as it is. That is too soon as it is. *sighing*

Good luck & I hope you continue to get better.
