Complex regional pain syndrome or reflex sympathetic dystrophy

I need surgery on the thumb joint on the hand with rsd in it. Long ago diagnosed and treated early. I am hoping to find a doctor that can treat my thumb without placing a cast on it for six weeks. The doctors in my area have no knowledge re rsd, as per their own admission.
Hoping someone here can help me, but as I just signed on, it appears that to make contact with someone with the same experience will be extremely hard. Hope not. Thankfully, I don't have to take high doses of pain killers often and then I just stack up on over the counter drugs. Good luck.

I have RSD and the surgery was done of a mass removed in my thumb which lead to where I lost mobility in the rest of my fingers however with therpy I gained the some mobility but still have weakenss sensitivity sharp pains and cant make a first . Now my hand surgery was done in April. I too take tramadol and Gabapentin. I applied for disability but Do you think that even though some look at us and cant see our pain that we can win our case when it comes to trying to get your disability I'm 43 years old
