Default Amputation & RSD
I also do not think that amputation is a wise idea for RSD. The end result usually ends in phantom limb pain which is very painful.

I also think that you might want to contact Dr. Rhodes in Corpus Christi.

I traveled a very long way to see him, but it is worth it. His treatment is non-invasive and can be administered at home. After your initial stay at his clinic, you do not need to go back unless you have a very severe flareup.

Please contact me if u have more questions and I will give my email address.
