Does anyone have a recommendation for an RSD doc is Southern California?

Thanks

Hi shelley
Not sure we can post this so I put his name on a PM along with tons of info on him. I've never seen him so can't rec him but you'll see in the info i sent.
hope this works out for you....Hope

Oh Dear Shelly,
I am so very sorry you have to be here as well. What kind of pain mgt. are you thinking about? Have you had a SGB block?

What exactly are your SX?

I was DX with RSD before TOS but the TOS was probally their right at the beginning. Filler MD did everything he could for me so I did not spread. What does he think?

I personally have had to be on everything from one time or another, so nothing would surprise me at all. What do you think would help you right now?

I live in Temecula, I just moved back. I am probally going to go to San Diego to get treatment. Right now, Filler MD is taking care of any meds. I need. Mike is in Santa Monica but the best Doc for RSD that I have personally seened was Maleki MD back east. Were with you. Love, Rozxxx

Thanks to you both. Got your PM Hope. I am going to make appt with him.

Roz - who was Mike you referred to? So filler was able to make it not spread.

Sheila...Dr. Filler's nurse just wrote back and they say it sounds like RSD. Scheduled a SG block for Friday.

Well here we go again.

Anyone have the blocks...what can I expect? I am hoping I caught it early. It sounds like it will help burning...will it help cold hands and feet so is there some vascular med I need to take or should I also see a vasc doc.

Hi Shelly,

I was DX with RSD before TOS. Filler MD took every precaution possiable for me while in surgery. The RSD did not spread.

Mike is on this RSD forum, he is very sharp bloat. He lives in Santa Monica like you do.

I hope you get relief from the blocks. Big Hugs, Roz

Thanks Guys,

Ok, I am still in self pity mode whch I should not be because many are far worse off than me but for some reason I cannot help it today.

as I look back I recognize some of these symptoms wel prior to surgery when this first all happened (the TOS) i remember several days of very cold hands and feet and going up the legs. Just never put 2 and 2 together.

Ok here is plan of action. I have blocks set for Friday with Filler. Great point Abbie I will ask about both hands and feet. Feel like I should follow thru with blocks with filler since he knows my case and did surgery.

Hope I got appt with doc you recommended next week. He sounds great.

Roz...which Mike should I pm? I looked on member list but there were several.

Thanks for all of your support today and everyday.
