I remember seeing her on Larry King - may have been a couple years back. He asked her about her "condition" or something to that effect. She could not come up with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. I forget what she said now, but it was something with the same first letters, but totally different words.

This is not what she said... as I forget... but lets say it was the equivalent to "Regional Symptom Disorder" I remember doing an actual double take at the TV. I taped the interview, as I was curious to see what if anything she had to say about her RSD, or lack of it. I played it back several times, not believing what I was hearing. What a joke. SO GLAD she is not a spokesperson for RSD. Sheesh.

I remember I posted about it the next day on the old board.

I thought at the time -- there has not been one day, not one minute -- that I have not remembered the words "Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy" since I was diagnosed.

How about you?

After I saw that, I had no respect for her in relation to having RSD. I don't believe it. She may have pain from being a dancer - I don't deny that. But to not KNOW what RSD stands for if you have it? I just don't think that happens.

RSD is life changing. It's way more than arthritis. Way more. If you have it, you remember what it's called.
