I am already relegated to a wheelchair for the MG/MS, so that is no biggie in the scheme of things. I mean I am alive. And with the new wheels I hope to be getting soon I will have a lot of freedom returned to me.
But it is scary to think about the what is to come of the picture. How much disability do you all have from the RSD?? Can you still write for instance?? I have spent these weeks training myself to write with the R hand only to have it turn on me too. Where is this gonna end up?? Any clue?? I know there is no crystal ball out there, but then again as patients you all know what this is going to do as you have lived it.
Thanks again for any assistance!!
God Bless
