Default Hi Joan,

You'll learn a lot here and maybe be able to find new things to help with the RSD pain. We're all still waiting for that miracle drug though so we'll just all have to sat here and wait for it together. LOL

What have you been through to get the RSD in some control. We all have different stories with it.

It's interesting to here that you had a hip replacement and ended up with it. That is one surgery that is on my list to have but my Dr. wanted to wait until I got a little older because they had said they didn't last long. That's been a few years back though and I have heard that they have better material to do the hip with.

I'm 55, had RSD since 98 and I have mine pretty much in control except the pelvic area or more near my left hip bone. I have it in my right arm and hand left arm and hand where it's mirrored over and in my right foot up to my hip. I've had blocks though that has been a Godsend to me. Some I've had with my surgeries so that helped keep it from spreading more in those areas. I also have it in my right side. Funny how it bounces around all over the place.

Anyway, I'm glad you found us and stick around and you will learn a lot.

Ada
