I am new to the group, just joined today. I have had RSD in my left
leg and foot for 8 months now following knee surgery from hell. I
take Neurontin, Trazadone (as needed), atenolol and oxycontin. I
have had bier blocks which helped warm up my foot alittle. As I read
the posts, it has helped to see that I am not the only one having or
had trouble finding a dr to treat my RSD. Our local pain clinic only
does bier blocks and my surgeron that did the surgery, has the
attitude of "The pain is caused by RSD, so just ingore it and live
with it". I think all Dr's that think like that, should have to feel
the pain of RSD for just 24 hrs and maybe they might get a clue of
what living with it, is like. Trying to accept having RSD has been
very hard for me and I am now just getting to that point.
