Default Can 9 surgery's cause u too get RSD?

This is what a nurse told me the other day on the phone and that RSD makes people crazy from the pain?? (I thought really, DUH< u think) Dumb quack of a nurse. The doctors never explained this to me that the more surgeries u have the more likely u will end up with RSd!! Is this true?? or is this my nurse just running off at the mouth.. Now the pain management doc ( said after only trying me on 10 mg of hydro and tizandidine now) for a year (after only trying Cymbalta and I couldn't take because of high bp and Gabapentin made me feel funny and under the influence at work)the only option she can offer me is the scs.. I know after researching for a year or so on RSD there are other options she could offer like patches, other med combos etc???
