Sr. Bernadette
I can well understand your frustrations. I've had RSD for 3 years which came about from a fall over a school bag and arthroscopic knee surgery. I had a stimulator implant last summer and another implant this summer. Presently the condition is in my back and legs. I pray it will not go to my upper body. I was very fortunate to be referred to an axcellent pain management specialist who knows this condition well. Is there any pain management services available to you? Ask your Dr. or look yourself. With condition I've learned that you must be a "mover and a shaker" in regards to knowledge of the condition and its treatment. I wish you luck.
