Hi Mike,


Thanks for your post,
I had long rejected the fact that I may have any type of predisposition that made me more likely to succumb to RSD following my accident.
It seemed to me that it in some way implied that there may have been something in my power that could have prevented it but I have tried to absolve myself of that responsibility as it is just to great a burden to carry.
It does seem however that there is something in this type A personality hypothesis as I do recognise many whom I would imagine fit that description amongst us (myself included)
My life before RSD was wonderful, I thought it could never be better but in hindsight I lived a life of permanent stress trying to balance being a wife, mother of 6, a full time highly stressful job and various community services.
My conclusion is that stress may not have been the cause of my RSD (jury still out on that one) but I do believe it has definitely impacted the outcome .
Cheers to all
Tayla
