I never knew that nerve blocks could make rsd spread. I have had 6 and my rsd has spread to my right arm (now it is left and right). I need to know if anyone has studies or concrete info on this because one dr believes that the rsd has spread and another doesn't and is making me go through the whole process of bone scan and emg again. He said for rsd to spread it is really rare and that without another injury to that arm he doesn't know why it would. Now I am wondering if it was the injections that were responsible. If anyone could email me or pm me some info to give to the doctors (and maybe save me from some very painful procedures) it would help A LOT! Thank you all again for being patient with my question-a-day. I really think you are all wonderful and am grateful everyday to be able to log on and find friends who understand.
lots of love,
Jennelle
