I'm new here, but I have been living with RSD in my left foot (dx after removal of two Morton's neuromas) for just over two years. It was caught early and I have responded well to treatment - pain meds, physical therapy, sympathetic nerve blocks, and lots of prayer!!
I'm having an MRI next week on my left shoulder to determine if I need surgery to repair my rotator cuff. I'm nervous about the RSD spreading to my shoulder after the surgery and just wonder what experiences any of you have had? My orthopedic surgeon said he will make sure I get a nerve block in advance of the surgery, and I'll most definitely consult with my anesthesiologist who treats my RSD. But ... I'm still nervous. Thanks! |
