On a reply to one of my threads, SBOWLING said that they went to Dr Schwartzman in Philly who is a RSD specialist. Don't know if that helps you, but there ya go. Take are and keep your chin up; we're here for you.

Both hands are effected now so I don't type long. But still, I am on 3 waiting lists for Ketamine (Any-one know a doctor?), one doctor will see me for 15k but he is far away and my current doctors say there is nothing they can do for me. Pain meds that barely touch the surface, no support and still a lot of attitude. Talk with people, search for help and reach out that is all we can do! Unfortunately, I have found that we must find answers ourselves. Don't give up! I made up a saying long ago that I think all doctors should adhere to...."For a man/woman to truly see, they must look beyond their own ego":icon_wink:
