Default Where to go?

Hi all! I've been lurking for awhile but haven't had the courage to post until today. First, thank you for all of the great information. I've gained a lot of knowledge from this site and I have all of you to thank for that. You are all fabulous. Thank you.

I live NW of Austin, TX and I have been semi-diagnosed with this disorder by my Neurologist. The strange thing is that the only symptom I have is the burning pain (due to a radial nerve transplant surgery in my arm in 2008). I have been to two different Pain Management Doctors and they really couldn't give me a firm diagnosis, either. Both tried blocks and trigger point injections (this was before I started reading here,) which didn't help, at all.

I have fairly good insurance and would like to go somewhere (anywhere) to get some sort of firm diagnosis. Would any of you recommend Mayo in Minnesota or the International RSD Institute in Tampa? Or, is there a specific doctor or institute that you could recommend where I might be able to get in within the next few months? I would really appreciate it.

Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to meeting everyone!
