Thanks for the support Wilbyfree. Why doctors don't see alot of things is way over my head. I did ask her once has anyone in your experience ever faked RSD? No, was the reply. If no is the answer then why do folks with RSD get the cold shoulder or the feeling that one is lying to gain something? I'm not too thrilled with American medicine at all. I really truly do not know how it compares with other modern countries.

My wife did talk to the one administering the FCE test and stated she doesn't think this test should be a gauge for those with RSD. WC cases it's primarily for. The other strange thing is on the doctor's prescription it says "EMC on right arm". This is the spot of my wife's injury where RSD first developed and then spread. The administrator thinks this is the wrong test for her but will administer the test anyway. She also said the test does not gauge pain.
