Perhaps you can have the nurses help you get a referral to a pain management doctor? A good nurse or PT can be a goodsend, my PT helped me more a few years ago than any of my other providers put together. Doctors only have so much time to spend with patients....
Try to find someone that you can relate to who knows the system over there. Getting in front of the right people right now is key.
A wonderful resource for you might be our dear sweet friend Ali, who used to talk with us often but is not on the boards too much lately. See if you can find a post by her and then send her a personal message. She lives in the UK and has had RSD for a number of years.
Good luck and keep in touch, Sandy
