 I need help! I suffer from Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy and Fibromyalgia, and need a doctor that is willing to try whatever treatments necessary to help me keep at a functioning level. As of lately all I can find is doctors that choose too conservative of a treatment plan, until years later when they realize that I am just getting worse rather than better, and then by the time they decide to try more drastic approaches, they stop taking my insurance (Tricare)! Please, if anyone knows a doctor with a knowledge of RSD and/or Fibromyalgia in the Copperas Cove, Texas area please let me know (if they come well enough recommended, I am also willing to travel). I am in constant pain and can no longer take it.

 I am not from your area but friends of mine of spoken highly of the Mayo Clinics. You could check on-line to find out if any are in your area. Good doctors are few and far between these days making it harder to get good care. Best wishes in finding someone who can help you.
