I, personally, would not reccomend going through with this procedure. If it is done and is unsuccessful, having nerve blocks will not work anymore because the nerve was removed. It is too risky of a chance to take, but that is just what I think. I'm not much of a risk taker. My doctors say that physical and occupational therapy is the only thing that can help to reverse it or atleast prevent the RSD from getting any worse. So far, the therapy is working for me. I am able to walk now after almost a year of having RSD.

Best of luck to you
