Can't they try any sort of block or inj??

Is there any of the swelling or color changes near your ankles, or just the tight string feel and numbness?

I'm not all up on RSD but your post & name caught my eye.
hope you can find something for relief & reassurance.

It couldn't be HNPP??

Jo, I haven't looked for the color changes. My shoes don't hurt, and there is no burning...so I haven't checked for the color changes. I'm afraid to. I will look at the HPNN stuff tomorro, as I'm on my way to do the company banking right now. I never heard of that until you mentioned it. But I did see the initials mean "hereditary" and I don't think anyone in my family has this. But I will read up on it tomorrow to see if I fit those symptoms, then talk to my pain doc about it on Monday. Thank you for taking the time to answer.

I am just in a bad way today. I'm in a "funk" and have to get out of it before monday. If my pain doc senses this mood, she'll make me see one of those chronic pain psychologists, and I hate thoe, ya know? LOL! I have btdt and do't want to do it again. It's "not for me" and I'm not depressed really....I just have these "moments" and this is one of them....
Thank you so much

Hugs
LisaM
