OMG! If someone put something cold on my affected areas, they would surely have a bloody nose! I wouldn't to it to be mean, but sometimes my reflexes would take over..lol. I am sooooo sorry that you had to endure this and know you are not alone. You were NOT being a cry baby, because it hurt. No one unless they have RSD can understand. Cry if you need to, it's a great stress reliever!!!
