I'm scheduled to see him again this coming week--I'm planning on giving him maybe 4-6 visits to see some results.

Scheduled to see the doc who said he has a new idea the middle of July.
Ugg, this is been going on so long for you. I hope someone finds something soon. I went so long trying things and I'm so happy that we finally got a solution for mine. I can't imagine going back to that burning pain. I still wish there was a way your doctor could check your leg arteries without having to do a big expensive procedure because I'm still convinced you have the same thing as me. I hope you get some relief soon.

Even placebos have higher success rates than that.

Thanks, myeamans. I am going to collect all the stuff you've said here to take to my next doc visit in a few weeks.
