Default Don't understand?

I have Rsd in my left foot and leg. I have been having this tingling in my arms like there going to sleep. Yesterday i was tring to tote my dinner plate and my hand started cramping and was feeling the pins and needles. This happened before in october at a halloween party. It was so bad then I just dropped my plate. If I had not switched hands last night I would have dropped it. I don't know if I should say anything to my doctor. I feel like as many problems as I come in complaining about that hes going to stop believing me. Does anyone else have this problem? What could it be? Should I tell the doctor? If you have any suggestions please help!

Default Hi abrown !

ABSOLUTELY tell your doctor ! He needs to be aware that you have yet another symptom among the ones you've already shared with him. Your RSD may be spreading! He needs to know this!!
If he hasn't taken you seriously with what you've already shared, ask for a referral to someone who will run tests and take a deeper look into what you are dealing with.

I'll keep you in my prayers

Share this updat with your Dr. Why just the other day..I carried index cards of things I wanted to remember to discuss with mine.. keep a log! RSD is neurologic..and so Mysterious...we must stay on top of it ..even if you feel it to be a quirky "thing"..if it is out of the normal..plz..share it...and if you are not happy with your Dr. and his believeing in you...walk..walk then walk more until you are happy with your treatment and Dr.'s support....

Careful hugz...kathy
