LOL! How can you NOT obsess over medical issues when you have whacked out diseases like we have? LOL! Ever since I got rsd I think ever little twinge is a spread!
Loss of bone density comes after you've had rsd for a while. It doesn't happen IMMEDIATELY. Normally when you are dx'd with rsd, a "baseline" bone density test is done, so they can see "where you are now" so later they can check the progression of the disease over time.
Although...I haven't had one...and I should get one. Hmmm...thanks for sticking that notion in my head. Wonder if that hurts. Hmmm....
Thanks sweetie and I'm glad you feel better!
