Hi Azaila, Happy to meet you, but sorry for the reason you are here. Since I got RSD from breast surgery, I'm sure I'm biased. My surgery was to remove two large tumors,benign. One deep in the breast and the other in the lymph glands in arm pit. That was 15 years ago, and I immediately had swollen arm, and then frozen shoulder. It is now full body and internally.
My life isn't the life it used to be. The constant pain is very difficult to deal with as you must know.
Because RSD effects the immune system, I wouldn't feel like it is a good idea. How long have you had it? You have quite a bit of pain I'm sure and probably independent pain. I think if you asked any RSD Dr. they would not recommend it. Even if you had a surgeon to do it, I'm sure he would have sign a waiver.
This is just my personal opinion, but with 15 years , full body, surgery is the last thing we want to go thru. Sincerely, loretta with big soft hugs
