Nice to "meet" you, Becca.
Wow, you've had RSD for a while...
Since you are around my age, I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions??
For how long did you have RSD before being diagnosed?
When you were first diagnosed, what did you do (what medication, PT, OT, etc)?
Were you told you would/ woudn't fully recover? What did the Doctors think of your case?
You mentioned you had a nerve block done. Did your Dr. try everything (s)he could before doing that? Was it sucessful? How much pain are you living with now? Is it getting better, worse or staying the same? Has it ever completely went away and then came back?
Sorry for so many questions. I hope you don't mind. I wanted to ask someone my age these questions to see what they did, and what they were told by their Dr.. Thanks!
