1) what year was everyone given a dx (age of patient)

2003, age 33

2) what was the original injury or instance that started the cycle

Impact injury to left knee

3) how long after you went to the doctor to ask about the symptoms did you actual get a dx, and by whom (pcp, pain doc, ortho, other)

I didn't ask about the symptoms really. I was on WC and when the first doc couldn't figure it out he packed me off to an Ortho like it was a threat. Was in the Ortho exam room for 3 minutes with him when he told me I had RSD. At that point it was just over a month since symptoms started and I didn't get any kind of "critical care" I should have due to WC not approving anything. All they did was try and deny and bully the doc into denying there was anything wrong with me and so was shipped to another doc, and another, etc.
