As I remember, my hand still felt like it was burning while submerged in ice water.
RSD RENEE, I think I've already read enough of the experiences of others to not chance the amputation.

Risking the RSD is why I have been putting it off all these years.
My foot and ankle are such a mess, one recommended MD who specializes in foot/ankle stuff, said he'd have to break all the bones in my foot and ankle and rebuild me a good foot. That was 5-6 yrs ago.
He did get me out of the AFO with about 6 months of 3x/wk PT, so that was good.
