Hello,
So sorry for what you're going through. It is so challenging and frightening. I have questions for you - did your wife have much work up so they know it is type 2 CRPS not a nerve entrapment or something else that may have a "mechanical" cause and potential treatment? Is she on any meds? Does she have a good PCP who is willing to step in with steroids, neurontin, TCAs or other things until she gets in somewhere? Where are you located? Littlepaw |

Cleveland would be good. It'd be great if you find an academic center you can drive to in a reasonable period. I don't know if Henry Ford has anything. University of Michigan Health shows a doctor with CRPS as a clinical interest. I don't know anyone who's gone for PM but every Michigander I know who's gone to Ann Arbor has received thorough care they were happy with. Might be worth a phone call...
Keep us posted, Littlepaw |
