i was 12 or early 13 when i first heard the random dx rsd, i think i was a lot like ali i wantd to know everything unfortunately the more i read the more stressed i got. the information helps if you are one of those kids who wants to know the best and worst case scinerio stuff. i found that the stuff that said i couldnt do something motivated me to do it...of course it hurt for a while afterward but i felt better knowing i could do the things they said i couldnt.
im not sure if i mentioned it before but the hyperberic chamber really helped me when i got into that stressed up ball that felt like moving was awful. the lying flat on a bed was a challenge but they added pillows that helped and the extra oxygen really helped to calm things down
