Any information will help. I did google it, but hardly any information on RSD.
Thanks in advance for any information.

Hi Sandy,
I did try Cymbalta and it was not for me. The sweats where just crazy and it did not help me. But everyone is different and you have got a lot of positive feedback. My only concern is her age,17 is young for a strong drug like that.
I hope Lindsay is feeling the best she can and wish you guys the best. I can somewhat relate to your feellings. I have a 16 year old daughter who we just found out has some pretty serious neuro problems. It hit myself and my husband like a ton of bricks. But we went to the best neuro-peds surgeon in NYC and right now everything is at a standstill. She has a Type 1 Chiari Malformation and a tiny, tiny, lesion/tumor on the temple of her brain. She is functioning normal & may never have to have anything done with either problem. She is being monitored with MRI's every 3 months and so far the lesion has not changed, they are more concerned with the lesion then the Chiari. I think I cried for a week straight. We found this all out in the ER and then had to wait about 3 weeks to see the neuro surgeon. It was the worst 3weeks of my life.
I wish you guys the best. Good Luck...
