Default Clarification

Hello to all and hope you are having a good day. I would like to clarify a comment I made a few days ago. I did not mean to sound disrespectful to Mike and certainly apologize if I did but I do stand by my feelings. RSD has long been established as a physical disorder and yet there are still doctors out there who view it as an "it's all in your head problem." I know because I have had the displeasure of going to them. They accuse us of malingering. They accuse us of working the system. They accuse us of attention seeking. They accuse us of faking our symptoms for financial gain. [ Though I'll never figure out how they figure I fake a blue ice cold limb]. Anyway, I feel that any study that even mentions the word emotion gives these medical professionals the support they are looking for. I know that the study does not hint at this point of view but I can see how some might see it differently. That's really the point I was trying to make. Thanks for listening. Jeannie
