I have chronic pain no drs.1 said rsd/paralysis but to much 4 him/1 said fibromyalgia i dont agreew/ him help?

I got hurt in march05. I have gotten worst had shoulder surgery june/back surgery oct. I keep getting worst and symptoms spreading and fast since back surgery. Was mostly left side before/leg discoloration/strange gooseflesh/swolleness/numbness/burning etc..then after back surgery it became more intense w/nail riges,more severe pain in every way,with more location up my entire left side.Then I was in the hospitol due to bad med reaction causing convulsions. At that time 2 drs thought i had RSD so I had a care list no using left side due to severe pain,no IV left w/out use.They ignored it,caused a big infection since symptoms are now in right arm and hand. No dr wants to take me due experience w/ this. Found 1 dr and he said fibromyalgia which I disagree w/ after reading symptoms I try to tell him how I feel because I know my body best.I gave him articles and he got offended stated he is the dr.he says not rsd due to all over and yet the articles said its common I dont know where to go

1. Keep going to new doctors. I've heard it can take seeing up to ten doctors before you find one that can help.

If you are in an urban area, check with a fibromyalgia support group. It does sound like you do not have fibro, but the group might be able to steer you to a doctor that will listen to you.

Certainly the last doctor you saw is not right for you.
