Hi, Im new and have rsd and ra. trying for non narcotic pain relief. need dr in my area. wilkes barre pa. does anyone know how to get in touch or get started with dr schwartzman?

I'm so glad you found us. There are three forums here that ought to provide some information along the lines you've sketched:

Arthritis (Osteo & Rheumatoid): http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum21.html

RSD/CRPS: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum21.html

Medications & Treatments: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum72.html

The links will take you there, & you can look around, dive into discussion on-going, or start a thread. Unfortunately there is no way to search for locations on the forums, but who needs computers? Just start a thread titled, "Wilkes Barre, pick up, please," or some such think. People who have been on the forums for a while are close & know who's from where.

Same for Dr Schwartzman. Send out the question & the answer will probably find you in a few day a--depending who's on vacation.

Ask questions, come back, tell us what you need. Lots of information here. Lots of compassion, tolerance (go on! rant!we can take it!) &, if you want them, some great folks who will probably become true friends over time. Up to you!
