We have been trying to get a diagnosis for my daughter since April. (I know that isn't very long in comparison to how long it took for many here.) One of the first things that was done was a three phase bone scan. This was not a long test. They only did one scan of each area. It showed decreased uptake in the suspected RSD leg. The radiologist told the orthopedist that if it was RSD you would expect to see the opposite. (decreased uptake in the right, or increased uptake in the left I assume.) Does this mean that the bone scan could have indicated RSD from the beginning and they just didn't know it?

I learn so many things here.

Thanks.
