Default Newbie - RSD

Hello!

My 15 year old daughter has RSD/CRPS. She was diagnosed 3 years ago at the age of 12. It is in her left leg. She is in a bad flare up right now. We just moved to Oklahoma from Texas and I am wondering if anyone has a good doc they can recommend in OK. TX is so far to go when she is in such intense pain.

I have also read that some people have had good results with TENS units. I have one that I use for pelvic pain issues that I thought I could try with her if I knew where to put the leads. I don't know if I should put them on her leg where the pain is or on her low back where those nerves begin. Anyone with info or experience on this - your advice would be appreciated.

Just hoping to get some support for her and myself as her mom.
