Default what stage are you in and how do you know?

i am so sorry i havent been on here in about a week.. i have been busy with just life.. my daughter has passed her state final and now she is cna certified and now she is takeing her driving test, along with swimming and tball i am tired.

i went to see my pm doc today.. i have two one who gives me meds and another who does my blocks.. i went in for a follow up on the ketamine i did on may 1 i only got about 7 days relief and i told them to do more and hopefully i will get more relief.. that office is so insentive i asked them how much will it cost vs the hospital if i do it at there office and the p.a said i dont now anything about the money i just know how much i get paid and that is salary. he also then went on to tell me that i need to do the scs.. i said no. there are two patients in that office with rsd and that is me and someone else..
he said that the other guy just had his scs put in and he is off all his meds but. i then repled "his ketamine didnt work like you told me last visit" he looked at me and so no but his rsd is worst than yours..
his arm is so purple and he has bleeding sores... okay.. the p.a then said that he was in a far worst stage than me. i asked what stage do you think i am in?
he said stage 1..
wow... i was told at three months of having rsd that i was in stage 2 and this was by the doctor who dx me.

so my question is (finally huh) how do you know what stage you are in? thank you for your input.. i hope all of you are doing well and staying painfree take care michelle
