Laugh Hello Puppyraiser8!

Welcome! I'm glad you found your way over here! Lots and Lots of SCS talk!

You raise a good question. Seems every case is a bit different. Alot of times it's the insurance carrier who slows things up - waiting for their approval.
The best thing to do at this point would be to touch base (aka 'pester' ) the doc's office to see how things stand. Remind them that you are sitting here in this pain. Perhaps ask if there is anything you need to do to speed things up. Or simply ask 'What is the holdup!'

Sometimes it takes awhile for the Dr to get you scheduled in. I know this has been a source of frustration for several here. Or they'll change the date for whatever reason.
Since you've had your evaluation, things should be moving along.

I hope you get some answers soon. RSD is a nasty thing to have to battle, so I sure hope they can get this going for you SOON.

It's great to have you here!

Caring,
Rae
