Need a rheummy with experience of rsd/CRPS - northampton/leicester area

I have a friend with rsd/CRPS. She is struggling at the moment and her GP is referring her to a rheummy. She is based in kettering but willing to travel to northampton, leicester, stamford etc just for a rheummy who would understand . Does anyone have any experience they could share?

Thanks

Sally x

Hi Sally, I don't live in your area but am interested in what the RSD/ Crps stands for?

in reply to allanah

Good morning - they stand for reflex sympathetic dystrophy (old name) and chronic regional pain syndrome (new name). I got it after breaking my wrist a few years ago. Virge xx
