I was seeing a wc dr, he sent me to an ortho, ortho did the DQ surgery and lots of PT, didn't help, changed drs, he did a EMG with a neuro, still no diagnosis. Then I started with a new primary dr for wc and she immediately said, "I think you have CRPS." She sent me to a PM, Neuro, and Ortho, all three said "probable" and scheduled me for a Stellate Ganglion block, emg, and bone test - after the block my diagnosis was changed to "CRPS of the right upper extremity." Dr. Prager was asked to confirm, he did a block, and my diagnosis was confirmed.
I had and emg and mri too before diagnoses. The emg, was awful.
