i've been with this doc since my injury. yes, the blocks did help take

away the pain.. and i tried using that angle. that's when he told me

that i HAD rsd, but now i'm cured. i told him that everyone who knows

anything about RSD knows it's not curable and he got angry with me and

put me back on regular work status.. although i walk with a cane and

can't lift anything heavy and some days i'm paralyzed.
