Thank you for the replies... unfortunately I live in a very small area where not one person ever heard of RSD and all I do is explain and they still don't get it. My daughter is a nurse and I know she knows what I tell her the complications could be but inside I still know she doesn't fully understand, not to mention I have very tiny veins and it has always been a nightmare for sticks years ago. I have never had less then 4 trys until they succeed and they were supposed to be the specialists. I don't know if I should do this or not since all limbs are involved and I don't think I could take any more complications. Life is already hard enough at this point. In order to have someone who knows anything about RSD I would have to travel the 2 1/2 hrs to Phila. just to get the blood work or Baltimore. I am going to think a couple more days before I decide, but thank you all so much for the very helpful info.
Wishing you all a Happy, Healthy Painfree New Year!
