Fortunetly I don't understand any of the things you guys are saying to put in my 2 cents worth. I do want to say one thing, I do agree that Drs. are not seeing enough patients with RSDS for enough research to be done on it.

I see people on the same meds we are on that has back problems and other problems and with RSD it doesn't seem like any med we take is strong enough to keep the pain in check.

My Dr. in his almost 30 years of being a Dr. has only had about 4 patients he says with RSD. At this time, I am the only one he has, of course he is just a PCP and Sports Medicine Dr. but even pain Drs. I think get all kinds of other medical problems to deal with more so then RSD patients. There aren't many Drs. that specialize in RSD either.

I know there is some research being done but I don't believe it is enough.
