this is from an article


About two to four children per 1,000 have the disorder, which also is
known as Pain Amplification Syndrome, Complex Regional Pain
Syndrome, Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome and Reflex
Sympathetic Dystrophy, said Dr. David Sherry, clinical director.

and this is another part of it

Dr. Sherry said about nine in 10 children treated with the therapy remain
pain-free after five years, a better success rate than less intensive therapy
regimens, medication or surgery.

that was from 2005
I just wanted to say sorry that you have to deal with this! I got RSD when I was 15, so I understand the being so young thing. I went to prom on crutches and pain killers. So if you ever want to talk to someone that is now an adult, but was about the same age as you feel free to pm me about anything.
