Hi there,
Welcome to Neurotalk, Jo, I am so sorry about everything that you are going through ((hugs))
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. I first developed RSD in my leg on the 16th March, I was diagnosed with RSD 4 months later. I then had a guanethidine nerve block which caused me to lose my balance. I was later prescribed Amitriptyline which caused 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 arm as been in remission, but I knocked my arm 3 weeks ago and it caused my RSD to flair up again
Do you have Physiotherapy? I see a physiotherapist once a week and I find it really stressful, I don't really like my Physiotherapist, she is not very understanding.
You sound like such a nice person and I am sorry about everything you are going through, I am so proud that you are still able to go to work, I can't go to school due to pain and mobility issues, I miss my friends and teachers A LOT.
take care and I have replied to your PM that you sent me
Love
ALISON
