I left there so angry and feeling like I had just been dismissed. This is the workers comp doctor. What should I do? Should I ask my attorney if I can just go to the family doctor here in town? At least she listened and acted like she cared and didn't just blow me off.

Dear Phaedra,
I am so sorry you received conflicting information and diagnosis or rather no diagnosis, just refutation of RSD. If it were me, YES, I would talk to the attorney about the matter and what your best steps are in your situation.
You have brought something to mind that may trigger a new thread from me concerning the diagnosis of neurological conditions.
Please keep us posted as to how things progress and the steps you decide to take.
