Just wanted to let you all know that I went to the nerologist today and he said that he is not sure if I have RSD but also stated that he doesn't know what is wrong with me. I have to have blood work done, and a MRI as well as a EEG. I am not wanting something to be wrong with me but I know that it is not normal to have these symptoms. It is so frustrating.

Hello Truthone! I sure hope that you do not have RSD either. Can you go to a specialist as well?? Maybe he can tell you for sure if you do indeed have this baffling disease? Take care and please post back! ~Love, Desi

Hi there,
I really hope that you do NOT have RSD, it is such an horrible illness to deal with.
Please let us know what the results are of the blood work, MRI and EEG, we will be thinking of you at this time.

Pain free hugs
Alison

i have a random question if your neurologist isnt sure what is wrong did he/she tell you it might be crps(rsd),fm, or something similar? or did they just say not sure what is wrong go have these tests and i will figure it out? the only reason i am asking is because every neurologist i have seen has said "oh yeah you have crps" after looking at me, they didnt need a bunch of tests to give me a diagnosis. the only reason i am saying anything is if you are diagnosed with crps (i hope that is not the case) you may want to find a neurologist who is a pain management specialist who is very familiar with the disease.
i hope your tests provide you with a diagnosis and reveal that you have something else
