Hi daniellia

My have not lost any nails yet but the Dr ( my primary care dr ) did say 2 look like they are ready to come off....As for my toe nails ( where my rsd is, left foot ) i have noticed my nails getting darker & they are horrible now when .
The Dr i see is a pain Dr....I am not sure what other type of Dr i should be seeing...She only gives me pain meds & lidocain injections but never even cks my foot...Any suggestions? I have been to many Dr's here , but none can help me but the pain dr & lidocain injections...

When you're new to RSD there's still a good chance to overcome it and this usually requires aggressive treatment. Generally this means attacking it on several levels including injections and therapy. The first couple years are when most remissions occur. Don't let the time slide by.

Good luck. This disease isn't a death sentence even if you can't kick it. Learn your triggers and try to stay occupied with life.

Good luck.

I always treat myself to a pedicure in the late spring and the girl who always does it for me asked about my nails the last time. I really didn't have an answer except RSD and she agreed that it was probably the case after I explained that it is a nuerological disorder. I guess that I am lucky that I can still get a pedicure, wish I could still get a mani!
