I am at an 7 on average! Today is a good day and I am about a 6...Yesterday I was about a 9. It all depends...
My husband just sold my snowboard and waterski on Ebay a couple days ago. I used to be so athletic. I can't do nearly haly of what I used to. But, I am determined to not give up! Once you give up, what's left?
My pain just started returning. I was in a remission for 9 months while pregnant. I guess 90% of RSDers that get pregnant go into remission, but soon after delivery the hormones return to normal and the pain returns with a vengeance. So, technically I just gave birth 7 weeks ago and the body take 6 months to return to normal. So, my pain should keep increasing if it goes by the books....I am prepared...BRING IT! lol
I am sorry that you are in that situation right now. I would start and apply for SSI (Social Security Insurance). It's for low-income. Check it out and other options on

Good Luck Hun!
