My RSD was better for about 7 months, low pain no flairs after I had my daughter.
What I had to do while I was pregnant was...
I had to have an epidural. They said that they are not sure what would happen, but to get a epi right away.
People had to hold my feet no stirrups during labor
then all the special things with blood draws that we have to do now.
There really was nothing other then that.
For me it was all very good. I would do it again if we were in a place to have another baby.
If you have any questions feel free to ask no matter what it is.

Hi GJMOM,
I have a question? What are the special things for blood draws? I assume
you mean precautionary, because of the needle I have only had one since I found out about my RSD diagnosis. I asked for the opposite arm. Now I have it both arms, acually full body so would like to know. Thanks Loretta
