Tayla,

Re: Your most recent series of questions.

#1. You cite instances in which there is often no other symptom other than pain: A diagnosis requires signs and symptoms other than pain. If someone is diagnosed with RSD based solely on pain, it does not appear to be valid.

#2. Please read my first post on the thread Facts, fiction and RSD. It explains how sympathetic vasoconstriction became the only explanation for this disease for 70 years and why research eventually discredited this view.

#3. Please read my post #17 on this thread.

#4. IRI only begins after the immune response to trauma, and that response always involves ischemia; if RSD is IRI, there was, and is, ischemia.

I guess I wasn't specific when I asked for questions or comments, but what I meant were questions about what I wrote on the thread, NOT what I have written elsewhere. I can't accomplish my goal of explaining IRI if I have to spend my time answering questions about what I have written in other posts...Vic
