Hi, Welcome to Neurotalk! Great to have you. Sorry you believe this is rsd. Sometimes, we do not have all the symptoms at one time. This is why the specialist got rid of the stages.

Most of us end up on numerous medications to control the pain and the other symptoms related to this monster of a disease. example. I am on Neurontin, which helps with the burning and the electrical shocks, Butran's that helps with the pain, clonidine which helps with the pain, vasoconstriction (temperature) and the blood pressure problems that occur when your in chronic pain. Abilify, for depression for loosing my job, my life as I knew it. Stool softners because of all the medications, Zofran, for nausea and vomiting and nexium from all the medications. Last but not least. Estrogen for the hot flashes.

UGG! I am a walking drug store.

Not everyone needs all this. This is what works for me anyway, welcome to the group.
