Hey! I am so sorry to hear your daughter was diagnosed at 15. I was diagnosed at 13 and am now 21 and know how hard the journey is. I tried the hyperbaric oxygen chamber and unfortunately had no relief. The fact that she is having a good reaction to it is awesome! I know how expensive the treatment is but with RSD if you have found something that works (even temporarily) I would stick with it!

Has she had any other treatments that helped her? Has she tried medication? I know for me Cymbalta has helped me more than any other med out there. My doctor told me the other day that with neuopathic pain like RSD that when they prescribe meds they are happy with even slight pain relief. She said a 30% pain reduction is considered a success. I hope you find this helpful and are able to keep your little girl in remission as long as possible!
