Hi RSD31

If the Lipoderm patches work for you, and as I see looking back over your previous posts you are having RSD spreading symptoms, perhaps you should look into subcutanious lidocaine infusions. lipoderm = lidocaine I believe?

Sory I realy don't know much about the patches, but I have been getting lidocaine infusions for over a year now and they help alot, I get one every month, they usualy only do these if more than one limb is effected. lidocaine infusions help even if you have had RSD a long time and I see you have had
RSD for three decades, wow I can't imagine..

I am suprised it hasn't spread sooner actualy, makes one wonder about the spreading mechanism.. what sets it off etc. Sory I babble, one of my meds no doubt.
be well,
Sandra
