The toe itself is, surprisingly, not too bad. Black and blue and a little swollen, but all in all okay. Does anyone live in the South Jersey area who can recommend a great RSD doctor???? I am desperate!!!!!

I'm sorry to hear about your situation with the physician. I live in Pennsylvania and have been waiting for over a year to be able to go to Philly to see Dr. Swartzman. The regular physician I see has been learning about RSD with me. I've found some rather interesting information on the net about the subject. And I have found if I go to my Dr. with said information. They are more than willing to learn and listen to me. I've been very fortunate in that respect. Perhaps a medical referral service would help. I hope you feel better soon. I know it's not fun. Soft hugs
