Default Upset, back from doctor.

Just got back from the doctor. I know everyone is going to say try to get a RSD doc. But I had to go back and see what he said. I had a copy of the bone scan sent to me. It said that "The increase uptake in the periarticular are of the foot could be due to RSD. Suggest further correlation. I told him that 12 years ago I had surgery and the same thing happen. I was told RSD. Few years down the line they also said Dystonia. It has settled down. The nerve test showed problem in the feet. Had plantar F. surgery in Nov. So I told him that they hurt all the time, burn, sweat. stabbing pain near surgery. He asked if I had back trouble or pain down my leg. I said not really. I have burning in my thigh since the nerve test on right leg.

So he is sending me for epidural steroid injection. for my feet. Will this work since the nerve test showed I didn't have problems in my back it was just in my feet. He said I don't thing you have rsd. Please give me any advice. Then he said come back in 3 months. Nothing for the pain. I'm not a drug addict. I have been going with out pain meds since Jan. I only saved them for night time to try and calm my feet. I'm upset. I hate to waste good money if this is not the right test.
