Lynnie, what a story! I am so sorry you had to go through it all, the accident, the excruciating pain, the way the RSD was discovered. I don't blame you for crying. Anyone would cry in your position. I still cry. It's nothing to be ashamed about.

If there's anything that RSD patients all have in common it's that they try very hard to keep their lives functional, and themselves functioning. If it's taking 3 people to do your job right now, then praise them for keeping you employed. Not many employers are so kind. Hang in there. I hope something can be accomplished with the ADA accomodations.

I am hoping along with you that the RSD will stay contained in one part of your body, so you won't have to give up anything else in your life.

I admire you for seeing the good in your life too.

Welcome to the forum!!!
