CRPS - anyone suffering with complex regional pain syndrome

I don't even know where I would find Scrambler therapy in Wyoming. I was making progress with Mirror Therapy until my insurance refused to pay for my therapist at the hospital here. I tried to keep it up at home but it didn't work as well. I gave up. I don't say those words very often but I couldn't figure it out on my own with my pain levels. Eventually I had to conserve my spoons for things I could tackle successfully. My mom is around now so maybe we can try it again.

@faithwalker007 Renee, You are in the worst place to get pain management. If you do find someone that does Scrambler (Calmare) therapy, be sure to ask how many patients the person that would do your treatment has done. From what I know, technique is important. You also might was to send a message to Spero Pain Clinic in Illinois, and write to a guy named Norm. He owns the Scrambler company, Spero Pain Clinic, and does the treatments. He is a Guru when it comes to doing Scrambler therapy, and gets good results with CRPS patients, and does a lot of advocacy for them. People even fly in from other states, and stay at nearby hotels to get his treatments. He is very well known in the area of Scrambler Therapy. Tell him Lori Miller told you to talk to him. He may even be able to guide you as to where to go for treatments. Also, having a DRG may be an issue. I would imagine you have to turn off your DRG while getting treatments. The guy is Norman Black, and has a face book page, if you want to see him. My best to you, LoriRenee1

Renee, not sure where you are precisely in Wyoming but there is a place in Idaho Falls that offers it. Here is their page on locations:
http://calmarett.com/facilities/index.html (Click on Chiropractors for the Idaho location.)
I did extensive reading about it several years ago and I remember that there were a significant percentage of people that did it that got benefits. It might be worthwhile looking into for your situation with CRPS. Best, Hank
