I could have written this myself, to the letter (the second part of this). AMEN, preach. I totally agree with everything you said and had similar conversations last night using "cancer" as a for instance in the same scenario, though I don't like doing that, sometimes you just have to say it out loud. Odd how your words were almost verbatim for what I said to my best friend last night.
Nice to hear it come out of someone else's mouth....I am sick of hearing myself talk, think...lol

Most ER dr.'s are clueless on the facts of RSD pain. Another thing you should try if it happens during the day is have your PM doc call ahead for you. Then they will be expecting you. You have to be pro-active in making sure they understand you are legit. (Why do we have to prove our legitimacy all the time!!!?????) Arrrggggggh!
