So I went back for my third visit today and tonight I am hurting bad after my adjustment. Does anyone have any experience with a chiropractor and RSD. I have heard that RSD causes our bone density not to be good so to be careful with hairline fractures during adjustments. I would love to here from somebody who might has been to one with having the RSD and did it help or hurt worse in the longrun. Thanks for any advice or experiences that you may have to offer. I am open to the bad and good , I just want to be informed in my descision to continue or stop care. Thanks Angela!

Angela, I have found that chiropractors are like other docs. You have to look for the good ones. I have had some who have NO concept of RSD, others who "think" they know and FEW who do know and understand how to treat us! I have been to 6 different ones and out of that have 1 who actually knows about RSD, SCS and how to care for us. I see her (yes her) very rarely for things but when I need to see her she helps me without hurting me. So IMO you need to find a new one interview them if at all possible then let them work on you.
