Sam -

I second the motion for you to be worked up by a good rheumatologist. We know that in the first couple of years there is inflammatory stage of RSD which could be associated with the expression of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell, but your report on ongoing high fevers is atypical. (By any chance, has anyone suggested that you see a hematologist?)

One the whole, the range of symptoms you are reporting do not sound at all like the usual side-effects of CRPS/RSD, which are primarily associated with autonomic dysfunction. I don't know where in Pennsylvania you live, but if doctors around you are causally talking about a prospective need for a liver transplant, I would want a full work-up NOW - based on a referral from your physician - at the Cleveland Clinic. It's time to cover all the bases.

Mike
