I was finally diagnosed by pain management doctor after a "successful" nerve block. Last under a day..

I had gone through- three ortho docs, a neuro, gp, pt. before hand.

I had pain starting after break last august. Casted, was "healed" so he let me go. Always had pain. Come February i had been dispatching for a couple months and couldn't take the pain any more. So went back to doc, he said i had dequervains, did surgery (wich he only made my tendon pop in an out now too) made is 50 billion times worse. He said pain was normal post op. sent me to pt. 6 weeks later still awful, transferred me, and then i kept getting passed to someone else (each saying it might be rsd) . so i decided to go to pm on my own, and he scheduled the block, and bam diagnoses. Now have a new pm/neuro doc, who also agrees.


So..thats my experiance with dx
