My body is still healing, recent x rays show osteoporosis is still evident in the area of trauma but my bones are strengthening and my RSD symptoms are very mild now.

I happily stand corrected! (And am thrilled to here of your continuing recovery. Clearly your RSD was being aggrevated by the screw. One wonders how many of us have such "reversable" conditions.)
