So yesterday morning, the specialist doc I'm seeing called me around 10AM and upped my appointment from two weeks from now to today, so he can discuss the results of my bone scan. Quite frankly, I'm terrified. And I have no one to go with me today either

Hopefully the doctor just wants to get you set up for RSD specific treatments! Like the ketamine! Push for that!!

Boo on neurontin, that drug made me crazy. I'd definitely try Lyrica at some point. Maybe now with a diagnosis you can some stronger pain meds, which don't help a ton, but do usually at least help your resting pain.

Good luck! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Actually, the entire appointment was pretty much "your bone scan lit up, that means your foot is fucked up, plus we think there may be something wrong with your spine (again) or it may be RSD". Almost a complete waste of time, but (in his words) "just in case it is RSD I'm going to set you up with a pain management clinic, where they do injections" so hopefully I'll get proper treatment there.

How did the neurontin make you crazy? But I'll agree that neurontin sucks. ;) And I know have prednisone to start trying.

Thank you! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you too. :)
