In September the steroid injection didn't work, that is when they diagnosed RSD. I haven't been able to walk in 7 and a half months, and my leg is getting progressively worse. So I would just like to thank you all for all the advice that you give people, whether directly or indirectly by posting on a forum which anyone can read.

Hi Kate. You may want to start your own thread cause this original post was so long ago. I am sorry you are in such a bad place. I see you are in the UK but is there a pain doc who deals with RSD near you? How did your leg problem start? Have you had dx tests done to rule out another condition? The longer you are not able to use the limb the worse this condition gets. Are you or have you been on any meds? What about blocks? I think you really need to get in to a doc asap who deals with rsd but also to see a possible neurologist to rule out other conditions. Sending thoughts and if you want an email buddy I am here.
