@julesj Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am sorry to hear you have had such a life style turn around the last couple of years. and loss of quality of life. It's really tough to step through this on a daily basis, isn't it?

I have linked a couple of great articles, one from WebMD, and one from Cleveland Clinic, for you to look at. Being in the Sacramento area, as you stated, have you considered UC Davis, a great teaching hospital in your area? I have a friend who accesses that facility, and is very happy with her care received there. https://health.ucdavis.edu/medicalcenter/ When I lived in Southern Califirnia, I used a facility that was connected to UCLA, and was considered a teaching facility for residents. I feel it made a difference in my level of care, having some sharp young doctors willing to look outside the boxes!

Bear in mind that having other health issues/concerns can combine to make a challenging case! I am here for support.

Thank you Ginger.
Yes every day is a challenge as extreme depression/ anxiety have played a huge role now in the loss of my life.
Thank you for the insight. My insurance will not pay for UCDavis / Stanford / Ucsf however I have spent about 80k out of pocket for treatment for the accompanying CRPS /BME with consults and alternative / main stream treatments .
I have not looked into ucla and have not gone to Mayo or Cleveland but I have read their info. Thank you most for your support here!

Best to you,
Jules
