Hi there
Welcome to neurotalk.
Please let me introduce myself, my name is Alison I am 12 years old and I suffer from RSD in my left leg and right arm (although my arm is getting better )
I first developed RSD in my leg on the 16th March 2007 after an ankle sprain, I was diagnosed 4 months later.
I was then prescribed Amitrpityline to try and help me sleep, but this caused severe blurred vision and resulted in a fall in the bath, I developed RSD in my arm.
RSD can spread after an injury, if you think that you suffer from RSD in another area contact a neurologist / PM doctor they can diagnose you. It does sound like you have RSD in other areas. Do you suffer from colour changes? Physiotherapy can make your pain worse.
If you suspect RSD, then please start touching your body with feathers etc, this will try and stop the limb from being hypersensitive. It might work but then again it might not. I have tried it for several months now and it does not seem to help me.
Mirror therapy might help you too. If I was you I would talk to you Physiotherapists about your problems.
Please keep us informed on your progress
Pain free hugs
ALISON
IF YOU NEED ANYTHING I AM HERE AND WILLING TO HELP, I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL AND HOW BAD THE PAIN IS.
