These are just some thoughts, I am not a doctor!
Let us know your rsd history, if any!
Wish you the best!

Hi! You ask for my RSD history, i had never heard of this before i came across it on this site!! All i know is that i did have hot feet from time to time over the years, but lots of my friends did too and we put it down to hormones! It was never accompanied by a change in colour or skin sensation or texture NOR PAIN!! Regarding the acromegaly, i am deemed to be 'cured' by doctors, but according to the Pituitary Network Organisation in the USA once an acromegalic, always an acromegalic there is no such thing as cured. I do see a link between the surgeries for my knee replacements and this present situation i currently experience. I am somewhat concerned that if i have to undergo revision surgery on the knee further damage may occur to the nerves when they apply a tourniquet for the duration of the surgery. This cannot be good for the nerves surely! Meanwhile i will continue to learn about RSD!! Regards
