Hello, Just joining this group. Was recently diagnosed with RSD and am just getting to know what this is all about. I have 3 herniated disks in my neck and developed symptoms of RSD about a year ago, purple, cold and painful hand, but no one diagnosed this as RSD until I saw a disability doc and he knew what it was right away. I wasn't having too much pain until recently. ( have been on neurontin for several months) I started to have leg symptoms on the same side, so I had an MRI of my low back and neck to rule out stenosis. It looks like it is RSD, but I'm still not sure about the leg. Anyway, the arm and hand are getting bad again (for me--from what I read, many people have it much much worse than I do) so, I thought I would join this group for support and see what others are dealing with. Am glad to talk with others with this.
