My pcp just diagnosed me with RSD. This comes 4 months after having surgery for bi-lateral TOS. My left is worse than the right, and my face is particularily affected. My pcp said that all that can be done for me is already being done. I am already on the medications that he uses to treat RSD.
He did tell me to talk to my surgeon about it, and let him know about his RSD diagnosis.
My question is this. Should I wait until I see him again in two months, or should I phone his office and ask the receptionist to relay a message to him that this has occured?
At this moment the burning is tolerable, it is as though I have a bad sunburn, particularily on my eyelids. The swelling, and the burning in my arms and neck comes and goes. It is certainly not constant. My eyeliods are the only things that are consistently burning.
Any advice would be appreciated.
