How do you tolerate your WHOLE body with rsd? are you on pain meds? take care and thanks so much--hutch:
I take vicodin and baclofen. :-) I wouldn't move without something for the pain. lolol I was on work comp for the first year and a half and out of all those months I was given something for the pain for 2 months, that's it. Since it spread so quick I learned how to keep my mind busy and just deal with it. Not like I had much of a choice. lol I'm not sure I tolerate full body, I've just accepted it and have found my limits and ways to keep myself busy. When it gets rainy it hurts but when it eases I'm happy. :-)

Hugs,

Karen
