Anyone one know of anywhere else I could check that would be sooner?

I was afraid someone was going to tell me that. I have heard of some saying they have it in there head but mine is definately scalp- and i havent been able to brush my hair good because it hurts too bad- i look a mess. You know my RSD went from arm/hand/shoulder/feet legs/face/other arm/back and now scalp. I know what it is but i still have to ask-i guess i dont want to believe it.

I heard Dr. Getson in NJ does ketamine and is good.
