You have come to a helpful place! We're not doctors, but fellow sufferers with lots of experience.
Tell us about your doctors?
Tell us whatever you can, it's late now, and you'll be getting lots of hello's and helpful replies.

Go to rsdsa.org and read everything there.

Have you been diagnosed with RSD? Are you seeing a Neurologist?
(Some doctors specialize in blocks, and they may not be the best thing for you).

I'm glad you have Faith. That's what'll get you through this.

Pete
