I can't give much insight as I have so many different things going however making sure you have a DR who knows about RSD is the best idea. I have a SCS, just got it in NOV 2008, it helps the RSD but not good on the bones, for me, do some research on the SCS to make sure the DR's know that you know about it. I got lucky and got a good pain center and it was in a team effort between an ortho and the neurologist at my pain center.
