My Doctor, (A REAL PRO @ RSD) is certain. The rest of your symptomolgy seems accurate as well.
How long have you had RSD?
I don't want to make this a generalized statement. My Doctor is at the leading edge of RSD.
So, he has no reason to 'Run All the Tests', to look for this and that, because he see's so many patients/day that all have the same symptoms.
So why run up the bills (Unless you're in a legal contest), when he KNOWS what's up?
I wish that more folks had doctors like mine. He was partners with DR S in Philly.
Dr S went out to be one thing, My doc, (KNOBLER, ROBERT) went out on his own, because Jefferson University Hospital, opted to build a headache wing, rather than an RSD/MS wing.
So, thar ya have it.
RSD can screw with EVERY thing in your body!
Never discount RSD!
(Although, you never hafto blame things on it).

Hi Pete, hope your day is going well, and God has blessed you with this doc!
Anyway, God did bless me when it comes to my private doc who first dx me with this disease. I had an work injury in 2008 with two surgeries since then. My workers comp doctors probably knew that I was dealing with this but didn't address it...it was dx by my primare doc, then my surgeon and finally the w/c pain doctor after he got their report. Now it is out there and I and looking for anwsers to why my blood pressure is out of control, why my heart is acting strange? Everything I've learned about CRPS came from the internet and communities like this one, not the work comp doctors.
Good questions as to how long I've had it. I was dx in May, but I believe it's been there a lot longer. Thanks for replying Pete, keep in touch, I'd like that and I look forward to talking to you and others from the community again.
Question! I had an injury in 1998 of my right lower back where my siatic nerve was impegined (sorry about the spelling) where after that things where find and now since the CRPS I can't walk no more than three feet before it begans to burn, pain and ache and radiate down my thigh
could this disease effect and old injury? Lefty
