Pretty sure. Obviously without the "official" hyperparathyroid diagnosis, it could be off a bit. I suppose it's possible my RSD started in my face (10/2007) and has gone un-diagnosed until arriving in a major weight bearing extremity. Thinking about that as I type this response, I am now becoming a bit more scared...
A timeline around that scenario:
complex zygomatic fracture --> RSD L-cheek/maxilla --> hyperparathyroid (unofficial) --> decreased Vit. D/increased release of calcium --> osteoporosis --> patella fracture --> peroneal nerve injury --> RSD spread to LLE
Looks like either way, I'm in for a long road...just hoping it's not bumpy because them bumps = flares...
