She just isn't improving. He sent the paperwork to get her into a clinic in Tulsa because he felt like the long car ride did not help her after receiving ketamine treatments. We found out yesterday that they have denied her because she is a child. We can't find anyone in the state of Oklahoma to treat her. No one treats children. Now I am an intelligent person and I figure there have to be people under the age of 18 in oklahoma with RSD who need treatment. Do they all go out of state? This is just crazy! We don't know what to do! The children's hospitals don't have pain management programs and the neuros won't see her....anyone with ideas???
I hope that you receive this after so much time have gone by! I happene to stumble upon this while looking for Jim Broach's (from RSDSA) contact info, and it just touched me. I practice in Fayetteville, AR (two hours from Tulsa) and may be able to help? I am not allowed to post my e-mail here yet (because I am new) but you can find and contact me on Facebook. MY page is called The Neurologic Relief Center.
