Hi Kaye.
I am reading this as RSD w some symptoms suggestive of MS. Is that right? Does your neuro have a plan to do an MS work-up? Have you even seen a Neuro or is it the Rheumy who thinks it might be MS?
I think I would get the diagnosis nailed down- as best as possible- it can take time as Karilann has said. There are MS Specialist and MSClinics. I'd find the one for my area or one that works w my insurance and go there.
Please let us know how you are doing.
