Thanks all! :-)

Yup, ice is a big no-no! Before I knew I had rsd I used ice on my knee. I wondered why I was always in a lot more pain when I did. It was because of the pain I stopped doing that. The 2nd round of pt I about smacked the woman there. First thing she did was grab ice and I told her, "Oh no you don't! I have rsd and you can't put ice on me. You can only use the moist, heated towels on me...heat only!" She gave me a look but I stood my ground. I wasn't being given any pain meds thanks to wc so keeping my pain under as much control as I could was vital. She was a dummy anyway. LOLOL

Hugs,

Karen
