PS the UK guidelines are seriously inaccurate and full of important omssions, so bad I have not only e-mailed the facts to the Royal College of Physcians but to the Times in the Hope they will do a story on it.
Even our top Professor McCabe is at least 12 years behind the rest of the world. 1 UK sufferer phoned Bath because she had to have an op and was told that it was virtually certain she would get spreads from it.
The first US paper saying the use of pre-emptive analgesics would prevent spreads during operations was published in 2000 and there have been a number of others since.
The first paper published saying Guanethedine blocks were useless for RSD sufferers was published in the US in 1993, the first UK one those guidelines published May this year.
