I never heard of rsd but I have chronic fatigue syndrome and chronic lymes decease. When this all began about 10 years ago my symptoms were: pain from head to toe, shaking, nerve damage, could not close eyes and walk without wobbling, lymping, sore throat, blurry vision, voice change, tired, tired, tired even after sleeping, insomnia, headaches like migraines, arthritis pain even though doc says I don't have arthritis. I still have both conditions but with IV antibiotics, the nerve damage has improved. I am always tired still and always ache. I have lyme arthritis from head to toe. I am learning to walk about 4 blocks a day for exercise. Sometimes my arms and legs feel like dead weight and other times they hurt so bad I want to cut them off. I get a shot of 1.2 million units of Bicillin weekly. It helps a little. Massage therapy also helps. it gets the circulation going. Find out as much as you can about the decease and educate yourself and family and friends and learn to pace yourself and ask for help when needed.
