Default Hello everyone, was wondering about RSD

Hi everyone,

Im new here, I was wondering if someone sufferers here could have a look at my symptoms and tell me what you think, my doctors are completely baffled.

I was in a car accident in september 2013, since then I have had pain and stiffness in my neck and have been diagnosed with a post concussive headache disorder after a bad head injury. I have also had CFS for three years but only really mild.

Anyway a few weeks ago I started getting pain in my arm, mainly lower arm and wrist, it was an intense ache, almost throbbing sort of pain. My fingers were also getting harder to move on my left hand but I didn't take much notice as its very cold here and I thought it was that. On Jan 26th (monday before last) this had got quite bad but I still just ignored it, when I woke up on the tuesday I could not move or feel my fingers on my left hand. Lucky I was going to hospital anyway for an appointment that day, by this time my hand was grey and a lot colder than the other. They thought it was a trapped nerve but an mri showed it wasn't, I'm waiting to see neurology but it cold be ages.


one doctor said it could possibly be RSD, even though they don't appear to be textbook symptoms. My hand looks normal sometimes but the pain in my wrist and arm is getting a lot worse. I wondered what you all think?

thanks x
