Default Saw another OT yesterday

I saw another OT yesterday because the wc nurse I have wanted me to have more time in OT before going back to the doctor. Well the OT that I saw rarely ever goes to the hospital she works at the nursing home. She had brought information about tendonitis because that is what the wc nurse had told her to bring. To bad for the wc nurse after everything I described to the OT and bursting into tears again at OT, the OT is bringing info on RSD. She thinks that its possible that I had tendonitis and because it went misdiagnosed and mistreated for so long that it turned into RSD. But she says that she will help me thru this and will get it into remission. I told her that there is a problem with that. From everything I have read you have a better chance of it going into remission IF you are properly diagnosed and treated in the first 3-6 months of having this. I'm just past that, I mean if we can get it to go into remission I'd be exstatic BUT that doctor is going to be the problem. This OT is also telling me that I need to switch doctors and go to a pain management doctor. But I keep getting told by WC that I have to be referred to a PM doctor by a specialist doctor and I'm at a hand specialist now. Anyway, I'm hurting really bad right now. Walked to OT yesterday and was clear and sunny, then on the way home it down poured on me. So I'm trying to build up my strength to be able to walk again today to my OT appt. Have as wonderful day as possible.
