Default RSD - look for more

I was diagnosed with RSD as doctors found no answer to the pain in my feet. Please do not accept this without another opinion. My 10th Md was a neurologist who did a punch biopsy to determine i had small fiber neuropathy. not that this is much better than rsd, but at least a physical cause. i was even (and still am) on a 2 year waiting list to see an rsd specialist in philly.. ok.. so i have progressed from rsd.. which is basically we dont know why.. to snf.. not much different.. but i know i have a problem with my nerve function.. i am following up on that, but again, without a sure underlying cause, not much attention given. please refer to my post under peripheral neuropathy.. i am going to do what i can to gain the attention of whoever i can.. if your symptoms are similar and you are not ready to give in to a lifetime of pain and meds, respond to me there.. i am not ready to give in.

If your prosective diagnosis is RSD, then you need to go down that road now! Early diagnosis and treatment is unyeildingly necessary. Forget resisting cerebral restraints, go for early intervention. You have nothing to lose if your wrong...
