Hi Robin

I posted after your introduction on the RSD thread. I am from the SE UK (Suffolk) but am in university in Bath. RSD pain is very distinctive - the mixture of burning, alloydinia etc - do you have alloydinia? Just out of interest - if you do too much do the painkillers help you recover from the extra pain of it? I know there is a type of RSD where there is very little pain but other sympathetic symptoms. I think (not a dr here) that following the path of perhaps a different diagonsis OR confirmation of RSD/CRPS through another pain specialist is advisable (Though I know how hard it is to get ANY in the UK!).

Take Care, Love
