Hi Jacquelina,
I too understand. I have had RSD for 20 years in July.This is a tough time of the year. I am so sorry you are having this flare. Sometimes my flares run ten days in a row. Its a killer. I will have to "Ditto" what some of the others have said. I take the hottest bath I can stand, then crawl into bed and try to sleep, sometimes that calms things down. Many nights I take more than one bath. Also some relaxing music if you can't sleep after the bath to help you to calm down. I wish there was more I could offer and certainly hope you get control of your flare soon. Watch your diet, and try to keep your stress levels low. Let us know how you are doing. Stay in touch. We are all here for you. Hugs Di
