Hi, I just sent this to three of my news stations. I went onto their websites and used all pertinent emails shown. There are two others however even their websites stink, so maybe a letter later.

Here is the letter I sent off:

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD:

Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, aka Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, affects many Americans, however, it is still unknown throughout the community. The medical field is becoming more aware of this painful disorder but we still need your help. I have posted a link to a video that gives a short Public Service Announcement about this disorder. Please, if you can find it in your hearts, and schedules, please play this video and help spread the word. People with this disorder who receive an early diagnosis and aggressive treatment have a much better chance at control, remission, and even a complete reversal.

Thank you for your attention to this painful disorder and to my email,

Christine Leiendecker
Date of Onset: 12/2006
Date of Diagnosis: 04/2007
(I personally have a better chance for control, remission, or reversal because of an early diagnosis and want others to also.)
