Default rsd

Since everyone is different, there's no way to predict how our bodies will handle rsd nor how fast it may spread or not.

I've had rsd for over 6 years now. Within 11 months it was in all 4 limbs. Since then it has gone full body. I got a broken at knee and 2 weeks later is when it all began.

I had no idea that rsd only goes into remission---but I am just learning this. I only have it badly in my right hand and arm, also less severe in my left hand and my feet are bad---they feel like a very hot-prickly-burning sensation. Also my feet feel swollen? How do you tolerate your WHOLE body with rsd? are you on pain meds? take care and thanks so much--hutch:
