Guest guest Posted August 12, 2000 Report Share Posted August 12, 2000 Well, I have to say you are very well informed and I just came in on the tail end of all of this and must apologize. You certainly have done your homework. I am very new to RSD and am in whirlpool of confusion, depression, and you know how it goes. You also sound very brave. I have a question and since I don't understand alot of the medical terms, but I realize it is your knee that there is nerve inpingment, and the constant trama to your knee is a source of the RSD. Is that right? The reason I am asking is because am trying to undertstand if the spine fusion I had two years ago that didn't fuse is the reason I have RSD. I have discoloration and burning in both legs and feet and don;t know if its from the constant trama to my spine (the instability), if I have had it for these two years or if the breast biopsy set it off. I'm just trying to understand what happened. You know most people know how they got their RSD or at least how it started in their foot, hand, etc. I had a breast biopsy and started instantly having ice cold purple/black feet. If it was the breast wouldn't I have it upper body? I'msorry, I'm just thinking out loud. and really want to understand what is wrong and how it got this way. Good luck on your surgery, both you and Felice. I hope your pain drops and it all works well for you both. Looking forward to hearing from you.
