People with RSD cannot tolerate ice treatments. I think you should read our forum here, and even put up pics of your legs when they turn colors, to see what those posters think. Many are very very helpful in this regard.
Most PNers and chronic pain patients do get relief from proper cold treatments for pain.
Keep that in mind. RSD is a form of neuropathy, but affects different nerves, and the sooner you get evaluated for that, the better. I know you have financial issues, but you may qualify for Medicaid in your state.
When RSD first starts, some treatments with calcium channel blockers can work. So early treatment is important.
