I can't believe this doctor had your husband run. I won't even let a doctor touch me and all the ones who specialize in rsd have not pushed it at all and have understood. This is a huge flag that you need another opinion. I am not sure how far you are from Ohio and I have mixed feelings about my care at Cleveland Clinic but I saw 2 pain docs there who deal a lot with rsd and I know a girl who has a lot done with them and has had good results. I also know she went to Rush Hospital though I was not sure if they deal mostly with children or only but thought I would mention that. If you want you can email me too.
