[QUOTE=ali12;523897]Hi Cuffs,

Welcome to Neurotalk! It is so good to meet you though sorry it has to be through RSD! You will find many great people here who i'm sure will try and help you if they can so don't be afraid to ask any questions!!

I would follow Loretta's advice and check out RSDSA's website as I have heard that they have lots of useful information about RSD and know which hospitals are best for treating it.

I am in the UK so can't really offer you that much advice unfortunately. The best doctor to see that treats RSD is usually a Pain Management Doctor as they can do nerve blocks, prescribe meds etc. Neuros also treat RSD however from my personal experience, we have found that they don't tend to know that much about RSD.


A little misunderstanding - I do have a great family doc that is treating me. The issue here is workman's comp and the state sending me to doctors that know nothing about the disease. I have had troubles with a few in the past but nothing like some in my rsd group as i have been able to pick for the most part on who i went to. However, now because a yaho who can ruin my financial life that doesnt' know what he is talking about -- now i have to find a doctor higher then he to give the opinion that he should have in the first place.......... but i do thank you for making me feel like i'm not alone out here on a bad day! Thanks
