Hi I'm sorry you have this disease. It can be very complicated as yes it is different for everyone. You are still young. I'm 60 now and deal with it daily. I'm one of those people who get ketamine infusions and then within a few days the pain slowly comes back. I'm sorry your insurance won't cover it but I think if you get just an appointment with Dr Hanna to see if he can help with your problem it may be to your benefit. I've seen him work with people who have financial difficulties. Also you can get in touch with the Rsd/CRPS. Association in Connecticut. They also have helped people as well. Google for the phone number and ask to speak to Jim Broatch. He's the president.. He's a very kind man who talked to me a few times when I first got RSD. Good man. He's also on Facebook and there are groups of people who have RSD /CRPS. I really hope you can get in a good group. I personally don't want the stimulator. I have a dear friend who has it and she has gone through a few problems with it. The leads came off and she had to have the surgery again. I wish you luck with it and I hope it helps you. God bless ✌ ❤🌟 Mary Edwards

Thank you so much for your kind words and helpful advice. I'll definitely try to contact your doctor and the rsd,/crps association in Connecticut. Please check in any time...I know many people don't know what this horrible disease is like. I had 2 c a neurologist, two psychiatrists, and rheumatologist and MY spinal surgeon and pain management specialist. To get the stimulator approved. But I have a 16 year old daughter who needs my 2b as healthy as I can. That's why I chose to get the spinal stimulator, I was like a pain level 10 every day, it saved my hand and got an 80% improvement in pain. God bless
