I just wanted to stop in and tell you welcome from Neuro Talk. I am not an expert in RSD, I just found out I have it in my ankle and leg, so this issue is fairly new to me too. There will be alot of information here to explore. There alot of people who have this condition, and will help you with some direction. I hope you are able to seek the best treatment you can. Welcome again, and you will make a few good friends here too. ginnie
