Hello! Wow I am so sorry you have had to go through so much. I also am suffering from RSD. I just wonder if a warm water therapy would be good for you. When I hurt really bad, warm water is my best friend. Ice just sets off my pain. Also, regular therapy tends to make me hurt more. Also, this may sound weird, I thought it was until I tried it. Have you ever tried acupuncture? Not on the affected areas, the surrounding ones. Your body doesn't like the needles being there so your body sends blood to force the foreign object out. This causes great healing resouces to the acupunctured area. It has really helped me and relieved pain from areas that are affected from me walking funny. It is my right leg that has RSD and so my back hurts. If we can get rid of any pain, it just helps. The needles are so tiny they are not painful. Good luck.
