Hi there, and welcome to the family! sorry its under these circumstances tho, but you couldn't have found a better place for advice and support!

i've had rsd for almost 6 years now, and after about the 2nd year i had a bier block, and my pain went away for 3 months. i had another when the pain returned and i got no relief from it.

i've pretty much exhausted all meds and treatments, but last december i found a doc in la that agreed to do a ketamine infusion on me, and my pain went away for 6 weeks. i had a 2nd infusion in april and the pain is still gone. almost 5 months pain free and off all meds.
