Default Need a new doc...

Hey everyone! I'm new to this forum, but I hope to get a lot out of it. I've had 5 knee surgeries (left knee) in the past 2 years and was recently diagnosed with RSD.. And I'm only 21!! I am currently seeing Dr. Michael Stanton-Hicks at the Cleveland Clinic.. I am really not happy with the treatment I have been receiving. I've unsuccessfully tried about 6 different medications including Neurontin and Lyrica and I am in even worse pain than ever. I also had a nerve block done but it was unsuccessful. I am actually going to get an EMG test done tomorrow morning because now I'm having problems with my left arm. I live in Erie, Pennsylvania and there are no doctors here locally that treat RSD. Can anyone recommend a good doctor for me to see?? I would be willing to travel to some extent.. Please I am begging for suggestions!! I cannot continue to see this rude old man for much longer but I don't have an option right now
