Welcome to the group. Sorry to hear your recent diagnosis of RSD. But glad to have you here.

There has been people here who have gotten relief from SGB. Personally I had an LSB, because mine is in the foot.

Default Hi Alt

Can you tell me what LSB is. I only recently have been told I have RSD like symptoms in my foot. I thought it was just PN. Sorry I don't know this term, but I am seeking relief other than pain killers. I read where RSD doesn't like narcotics. thanks for helping. ginnie

You werediagnosed right at the same time as me I was diagnosed finally the 26th. I've at a sgb recently and it helped for a day 1/2 , I had a lot of pain in my neck from the injection. But I have neck and spine issues already.. I hope you get some good relief!

I found that I didn't get any long term relief from my lsb. (lumbar sympathic block) (more then a day) when the dr. did injections every 3 weeks. But when they did 3, one a week for 3 weeks. I got relief for 6 months. (it was great) I recomend that you ask your dr. to be aggressive as possible.

Hi, I'm Jen,
I got CRPS in my left foot six years ago after fracturing a small bone in my foot. It wasn't diagnosed for five years, and it has now spread up my leg, to halfway up my thigh and is starting to spread to the other foot. I work in the medical profession and I've yet to meet a single colleague in General Practice that has heard of CRPS/RSD.

Default Hi Jen

I was lucky, my doctors all three know what RSD is. I am being treated for it. Have to find those doctors who know what they are doing to relieve your pain. There is help for it if you just keep looking. Call offices, and interview by phone to see if they know anything about it. Also the local hospital may have referances for you to find approiate physician. I do wish you all the best. ginnie

Crazy New CRPS

Hi I am Danyiel, 34. I was stabbed in the lower arm in September 2011. All three nerves, both arteries and 8 tendons were completely transected. After months of agonizing pain I have finally been diagnosed with CRPS Type II. I'm a single full time working mother...trying to keep it together. At least now after reading all of the great info all of you have posted I do not feel totally insane anymore. Thanks

Default Hi Danyiel

I am so sorry an act of violence came into your life. The results with CRPS is horrible to have to endure. I have RSD in my foot and ankle so I do know some of what you are experiencing. You are not alone. People on NT do care alot. Keep strong, and know that people also pray for you. ginnie
