I started noticing my left foot, ankle swell up and my Dr. was concerned, did an EKG right in the office. That came back normal. ok, he then wanted me to see a specialist.(Which was today) Now, my right foot ankle are swollen, but not as much as the left one. He felt my left leg and said, your entire leg, foot ankle is swollen, does it hurt to walk? Friends, It is PAINFUL to walk.
  THIS ALL HAPPENED TOO FAST!! Ok, I then get blood tests and xrays done(Had them both done this afternoon)My one dr. thinks it could be arthritis. I asked both Dr.'s why did it get this way so fast?? my family dr. said that is why he did the ex-rays and blood tests, as there are several types of arthritis. When I mentioned if this rsd is spreading, as it hurts in both knees, my hands swell, fingers too. It hurts(My hands so much also) they both acted like they didn't hear me!! Ok, he put me on some good support hose. Please, if anyone knows if the spread of RSD is gradual or fast, please let me know.Also, is arthritis a fast growing disease(Seems like in 1 week) I got all of this!! Help!! I am hoping it's arthritis, not RSD spread TIA (Thanks in advance) ~Love, Desi
