things are fine. Thats what happened when I didn't tell mine I needed
more Gabapentin for my fibromyalgia.

Not the same, but sure alike. I'm doing much better having a increase.

Hello and welcome Dani,

So sorry to read that you have RSD.. I too, have RSD starting in my right knee and has now traveled.. It is a bear and we all understand your pain and desperation... Please, don't be afraid to keep and open communication with your Dr. ESP. If you are not getting coverage with your meds.. It will be a trial and error for awhile until you hit on something..at least to take the edge off..remember do not use ice on your RSD affected areas and keep a journal of how your days are going... Continue to take each day as it presents itself and know that we will add you to our RSD family here..biggest group of caring people around! Feel free to jump over to the RSD group of postings..I'm sure you will learn a lot and feel loved as you read along... Any questions..just ask away!!

Take care... Kathy
