Yes, the foot has already experienced all the stages of RSD so it would not be a spread but a re-ignition of the firestorm. And PM doc said Ortho could do nerve block, but he doesn't seem too familiar with RSD, so obviously I'm thinking, they won't be the ones dealing with the pain and fire.

A body part once a focal point of RSD after surgery on that part,
RSD now in remission, but,
Could YOU, would you, risk another surgery on that spot?

I am so afraid.

Has anyone here ever reported good results with a second surgery in this situation?

At 75, my chances of remission may not be as good as I also have more health issues now.
