Hi Kate,

RSD does affect the organs. For me it is my heart and lungs. When my heart started beating too fast the first time I thought it was a heart attack. I went to the ER and all test were normal. I went to a cardiologist and he put me on Atenole. My heart rate will go up when my pain if flaired. My cardiologist told me that a very small percentage of open heart patients will develope RSD.
Make an appointment with a cardiologist. If he/she doesn't know about RSD have them visit the RSDS.org web site or print some information from the site and take it with you.
Good luck and take care,
Sherrie
