Rritam, You might be interested in this article on ACNES and neurotomy, the research though was done in the Netherlands: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5916540/ . Maybe the main researcher does have connections with people in the US in that field.

@lucie2, I appreciate your msg, but I have had access to Dr. Boelens' research (among others') for a long time. I have a stack of case histories and research for over 2 years because that's how long 20+ physicians have brushed me off. I had to finally make my own diagnosis confirmed by the head of the Univ. Wash. Medical Center Pain Division in Seattle, but they "don't do" neurotomy/neurectomy. Dr. Boelens' group never responded. My pain is severe and prevents me from traveling very far, even if I could afford to go to the Netherlands for care. As @donfeld has pointed out, patients need a PCP to coordinate their care. This site is not a substitute for care or help, and I'm sorry I wasted your time and mine.
