Ada and Kathy,

What kind of doctor diagnosed you? The PCP was the one that first mentioned it, but I don't know if he feels as though he can give us a diagnosis.

U of M hospital is very good. I have heard many great things about it. The other option was Cleveland Clinic. They have a program for kids with RSD. The PCP decided that we could go to U of M because of the abnormal EMG. The neurologist didn't sound like he had much faith in the EMG, and he suggested that we have it repeated by a musculoskeletal (sp?) doctor. The PCP is going to talk to the neuro, so we will find out what they decide.

Has anyone else had a situation with the EMG showing something puzzling?

I was actually diagnosised by my orthopeadic surgeon who had performed my knee surgery but soon after my dxs.. he referred me to my pain management Dr. who is now my RSD Dr...as he is more versed in RSD...

hugz, Kathy
