Heart Not sure whether I have RSD in my arm

Hi there
As you probably know I had a slip in the bath 4 weeks ago. I visited my local hospital who X-Rayed it and said there was no fracture - which was a relief. Me and my mum were told to visit my Consultant, who diagnosed me with RSD in my right arm has well has my leg.
Howeve I am not convinced that this is RSD because it does not feel like my leg. I do have the burning pain but I have no hyper - senstivity apart from when I put a lot of pressure on the part of my hand that is bruised. I also have a pulling pain in my arm near the bone.
Could there be a fracture their that they missed on my first x-ray?If there isnt then I am quite happy in saying that it is the early stages of RSD but Im still usure as to whether I have it.
Your help is kindly appriciated
Many thanks
Alison and mum
