That is great news Vanessa. I always tell everyone here to keep trying doctors until they find the right one. I'm glad you didn't give up. Sometimes just talking to a doctor who is kind and compassionate lifts your spirits and makes this RSD thing a little less of a nightmare. Now, I must tell you a little story. When I was 21 years old I found out that I would not be able to bear children . I was devastated and thought my future looked dismal. After all, who would want a barren woman? I wouldn't even date anyone because I knew eventually I'd have to tell them and they would probably dump me. Well, when I was 23 I met someone who I couldn't resist. After we dated for a while I told him what the doctors had said. He was very quiet for a moment and then told me that he loved me for who I was and not for any children that I might have. We have been happily married for 28 years now and he is my best friend.{ We found out 10 years into our marriage that he was not capable of having children either so I guess we were made for each other!] So, please don't think there is no-one out there for you. When some young man falls for your delightful personality and undying spirit he will still love you when you tell him your situation. If he doesn't, then it wasn't real love to begin with. So, keep your head held high and hope for good things to happen because you deserve them. Jeannie
