Hi Numb,

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. RSD actually causes so many things to go wrong in our bodies. It is an antomic disorder. That means involuntary organs are affected- like high blood pressure, low blood pressure, temperature of our bodies, up and down, blood pressure up and down, sweating a 'sign' Skin eruptions or rashes. ( i'm having a bout with them now.) My eating habits changed, not sure if its meds or just don't feel the same about certain foods. mainly meats, a vegetarian fits me well.

Ask your Dr. if Acid Reflux goes along with RSD. I know I have headaches nearly every day. I have both high and low blood pressure. Skin temperatures vary quickly.the bloating an edema is part of my picture. Sun is not good to be in without sun screen

The good thing, I had such deep depression for a long time, and now he switched meds on me for that. Went of two double dosed and went on 60 mg. of Cymbalta and just don't have that deep depression. Of course, we all have up and down days, but that hopeless depression is gone. My Dr. is a pschiatrist, neurologist, a pharmacologist. He has really been working with my head, and I'm letting go of my 'old life' and working on being grateful for what I can do and small goals at a time. Hope to travel a little again

The economy has effected our business, We've lost several jobs, but I'm going to force myself to get out a couple hours a day and get new replacements. It's not hard and I like it. Hope my health holds up. Will be balanced and stay home when I need to. Can mail out mailers off my lap top in bed

Galeon, have you ever looked up rsdrx.com It's a good site from a rsd Dr. in Florida. Under the sections for puzzles,there are a lot of questions and answers. Take care, Loretta
