Hi Holly I am in ut. and i wouldnt come here looking for a doctor there are none that I know of that can do ya any good if ya have RSD. I have had it for about twelve yrs and been to a few doctors here. sounds like the doc u have came from ut. if he put your battery pack on the belt line and says you made your rsd worse what by thinking about it like no one does that. Every time they do something to me they make it worse or what ever they do they mess it up and it is never their fault. My scs hasnt worked out they hurt my back putting it in they didnt blame it on me but they made sure telling me that they didnt do it even tho my back was fine before they touched it. I didnt think putting in a scs could make you get rsd in your back have never heard of that before ya sure the pain isnt from something else. I am in n. utah maybe down south there are some better docs but i dont think so the joke here is we get the ones that cant make it out of state. well have a great week see ya Alan
