This month is my 10 year anniversary with RSD. It took the doctors 3 and a half years to come to the conclusion that I have RSD type II. I have read over and over again that an early diagnosis, and some aggressive treatment could put RSD into remission.

Too bad my doctors were so slow to realize that the monster was RSD for me. They kept trying to tell me that I was imagining the pain, or was faking for the pain pills. To this day I still feel like I have to prove myself every doctor visit. So sad.

I am sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with this awful thing called RSD. But am glad you found this place, as it has the most caring, understanding folks in the world right here.
