I was going to ask the same thing, or suggest that you have an mri, or a ct myelogram, which really can let you know if it's rsd or back pain! A really strong muscle relaxer called Soma will give you some relief. I take it when my muscle spasms hit me hard, and it helps me alot. You can also get Soma with Codeine in it (fyi). I have rsd plus failed back syndrome. I had three back surgeries in 2006 and one of them game me rsd, because the Neurosurgeon cut a nerve twice. I deal with back pain from the Neurosurgeon's mistake, and pain from full body rsd, and sometimes it's hard to tell the difference myself which pain I'm having. I hope I helped you?
