Welcome to our little family.
Sue my you have so much going on and you are always inn my thoughts. I would love a visitor in Ca and I too hope to visit my mom for mothers day. Not doing so great though.You did give such good info about all of us. You forgot how you are such a strong and sweet lady.
Anyhow I am a yonger one too with this issue for a year. I have pn but similar to rsd in my legs. Now with a back issue. In the summer I went to cleveland clinic for a pain rehab day program which was all about a lot of activity. Anyhow first check with your docs for sure but with my issue I have to push myself through the pain and be on my feet. All the docs said as much as I can. Cyclops I envy you and taking risks. Just be carfeul.I fear a lot still and I have a rule my feet don't leave the ground. I may try the pool though. I have begun pushing more and trying to trust the process.I was extremly active before this happened. I will say for me that I have to be careful cause my flare ups from pt for example can last weeks. I have a rule no one touches me. I also get very cold to where I feel like I am walking on blocks of ice. I think from lack of circulation.Anyhow welcome.
