I recieved a packet with a DVD about the SCS when I saw my doctor. The problem is the insurance company is giving us a hard time about paying for it.

I'm sorry for the questions but here's a few more (along with the new one I posted about the alcohol swipe test).

I now have severe pain in my knee that burns and gives out and from there down it feels ice cold..Is this "normal" for RSD or could it be something else?

The other is one of the doctor ran the end of a pencil like object on both my legs. I felt it more on one than the but then he did again and it hurt on the side with RSD..Why is that?

I try to keep active so things don't get worse. I really wish this would go away but I know it won't, which is the hardest thing to accept.

I can not thank you all enough for your support and help you offer to me and others to understand this condition.
