Okay..loud and clear..you did great clearifying what a "flare" feel like.. Thank you!! And please..please..not to minimize anyone's pain here but I wonder if that is why my Dr. has classified my RSD as so aggressive RSD and why I didn't know exactly what a flare is because... I always have to burning..deep bone pain...stabbling knife pain to the point of pouring sweat all over my body cuz it hurts so bad... I am a nut..so stubborn not letting it break me down.... not being able to take any meds.. makes it worse as I always grit my teeth and try to stay in a good mood... ain't easy!!!

I am sorry for your pain and I hope today you don't suffer any flares..or for a very long time for that matter!!!!

Hugz, k
