Now i am having even more trouble! The W/C carrier hired a case manager, who is also a nurse, to tag along to the doc visits and schedule the tests. According to her, the only way to tell if i truly have RSD/CRPS is if the stellate ganglion block completely takes my pain away? Does this sound right? Especially since the doc already diagnosed me? I read on the RSD foundation site, as well as several personal stories on here that some people get several of these procedures done with no relief. So this tells me that she is wrong about that, but i may be wrong. The list of symptoms i have are swelling and discoloration of the hand with numbness/tingliness, painful stiff joints, loss of muscle tone in arm, burning pain through up past shoulder and into neck, somewhat sensitive to touch, cold, etc. Someone maybe let me know if this is it, and what i should do about this case man. Thanks
