Catra,

Thank you for sharing your heart with us. It is good to hear from you. I understand putting your hopes in a new doctor, as I have done that too, and have not had very good experiences. Mostly because they do not know about RSD. Nothing wrong with hoping for the best. It is always good to be open and optimistic. It is understandable to be nervous, you have waited so long. It sounds like this should be a good doctor to go to. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
I wish you the best.
peace
