Default stem cell for rsd

Does anyone know if there are any stem cell reasearch projects outside of the u.s. that are for us rsd patients. I am at a lowpoint nothing seems to work for me for any period of time. I am tired of the pills, all the blocks or infusion of the week. I have a appointment with my pain management doctor next week and I dont expect any differnt treatments. Just looking for info!

I haven't heard of any type of stem cell research, sorry.

I can however relate to pills (most don't do anything for me), nerve blocks, infusion of the week etc. My P.M.'s next line of defense is maybe a series of ketamine infusions. That's a big IF! If insurance will cover it, if they can find a venue that will do it etc..

I haven't heard of anything stem cell related either in connection with CRPS. I don't think stem cells work with the treatment of neuropathic pain....

I can sure understand your frustration though. Most all of us can......

Hang in there and keep fighting!
