Well, it pretty much, to me feels like, all the little symptoms of RSD that you have magnified by about 100% plus...I stiffen up...I hurt, the blood pressure, goes up, I burn from the inside out and of course my main source of injury goes nuts...stinging. burning, pain shooting through my leg into my thigh and then I get deep bone and muscle ache...during this time the heating pad is my very best friend....these are just some of the symptoms that I have, but they have been know to change...I journal a lot, so I can go back and see what has cause a major flare....sometimes when I get really excited and happy, I go into "mini" flare mode where everything burns and hurts until I calm myself down....hope this helps
