I have had full body RSD for 9 years. I have had two bone scans during that time and my RSD is not affecting my bones so the scan was clear both times.
Take care, Sherrie |

i had bone scan about 6mths into rsd and it was positive for already bone loss in my shoulders right wrist, and legs and spine. so i would say its a 50/50 chance of it coming back postive or neg.. that actually test that i had 11yrs ago to dx it was phentolmine challenge and thermography !! also vascular testing .. hope that this helps.

i was diagnosed like a month after my initial injury. nothing showed up on my bone scans or mri's or ct's or xrays tho... other than my original injury- hairline fracture to my radial. was pretty much process of eliminating everything else

Had my 1st scan at 5 months after onset and it only showed my broken kneecap which I didn't know I had. The 2nd scan was done exactly a year later and it came back negative for anything at all. I was glad to know my break had healed!
Hugs, Karen

My x-ray showed bone loss within 6 weeks of surgery (that was one key aspect of the diagnosis for me). I also had a bone scan that showed loss. Over time, the bones in my foot improved; I think part of it was a weight-bearing issue, along with the RSD.
