Hi Theodora,

Sorry to hear about the crummy appointment. Sounds like he is not your man.

Do you have a GP or even ob/gyn who might be willing to take a look at your bones overall? Osteoporosis is a real and common concern with or without CRPS. This can be accomplished with a DEXA scan and is not an unreasonable thing for a woman with bone issues to get. This will screen for bone density and let your doc know if you might benefit from something like biphosphinates. I don't know if a triple phase scan at this point shows anything, I have read that is more accurate acutely. Info on skeletal issues and CRPS can be found in this article. I wish it were more upbeat...
