I know that my pain doc says that some docs will say it is rsd because they don't know what it is but it may not be. In the mean time I still think you need a pain doc/anesteslogist. You can still go to the specialists. Have you been to a neuro? This is an important doc to see this could be a seperate nerve condition like I have PN too. Especially with the tingling you are having.
I seen the new knee specialist today. He said that it could be a pinched nerve in my knee or RSD. He is putting my on a nerve med. to see if that will work, if not then I go in to get tests done to see what is wrong with my knee and leg. I'm on the nerve meds. for about 3 weeks. So it is back to the waiting game. I go in next week to start getting shots in my knee to see if that will help with the pain too.
