My Rheumy told me that in the early days of her career, she treated RSD with long term use of a low dose of steroids. She said it worked, but the effects on the body were not good, and feels the newer treatments are safer. She still uses steroids when patients are in a bad flare. I believe she used a Medrol pack with me. She's using it in a "burst" now instead of low doses long term.
