Hi there,

Please let me introduce myself - my name is Alison, I am 12 years old and I suffer from RSD in my left foot and right hand.
I first developed RSD in my foot after an ankle sprain in March, I was diagnosed with RSD 4 months later. 2 months after diagnosis my PM doctor prescribed me Amitriptyline which caused me to suffer from a nasty side effect of "blurred vision", this resulted in a knock to my right arm. I was diagnosed with RSD 2 weeks later. The RSD in my hand as been in remission, but unfortunately I knocked my arm this weekend and I think that the RSD's come back again (my arms swelt up and gone red and painful) , I really hope that it is better for Christmas so that I can open all of my presents, lol.

I am so sorry about what you are going through - it must be so hard for you looking after the kids, cleaning the house etc, I bet you are really stressed.

If you need anything I am here, got to go now because I can only type with one hand
Merry Christmas and a happy new year
Pain free hugs
Love
Alison
