Thermography
A diagnostic technique for measuring blood flow by determining the variations in heat emitted from the body -- to detect changes in body temperature that are common in RSDS. This is NOT a definitive test to determine up or down that you have RSD. In certain stages of RSD they may not show a significant difference between limbs. Unfortunately some Drs will use this as a test to determine whether or not you have RSD, do not let them. If this is what they think, you will definitely want to consult with another Dr who has more experience with RSD. The same is true for a bone-density test, sometimes called a tri-phasic bone scan. Some may disagree with my suggestion to see another Dr but if your Dr feels that a Thermography test is going to show whether or not you have RSD,definitively yes or no, then you need get to a better RSD-educated Doctor. This is your life. You cannot afford to waste any time waiting for your RSD to move into the stage where the thermography will show a temperature change.

| As of today, we have a functioning forum board, a wiki for communicating medical expereiences, a very nice set up for the chat to accompany the video conference display while Jen'a or the featured boardcaster is on. I am still working on finalizing how the broadcast should be displayed, but once this is finished Jen'a and I will be doing some test runs to make this ideal for the first broadcast two weeks after her first local meeting. |
