Default Not alone

New meds didn't work out so again not much relief but we have doubled the pain meds that give some relief so I'm getting better relief and new symptoms have arisen so now 2.5 years since symptoms 2 years from diagnosis I'm seeing a rheumatologist I have no idea what this doc will find out or help with. Anyone have any ideas?

I was prescribed Celabrex once for arthritic tendencies they found in my wrist but I never started it because I didn't care for the possible side effects that I read about. You might want to check that out...???
Good luck...

When you say the new meds did not work what was it rx for? I am not saying for you to do this but an issue looking back was I did not give meds enough time. Some I understand work asap but some don't
When I saw the rheumatologist it was to look for auto immune conditions on top of RSD and I also have PN. I am actually going to possibly go back to one again for that. Sometimes like for myself yes I have RSD but have other problems going on too which can make the flares in my RSD worse.
I am not sure who suggest the rheumatologist but possibly ask why you are be referred.

I'm sensitive to meds and a lot of them have side effects that are not easily dealt with
