Jenna, My apologies, I didn't mean to sound ill willed. My own mother was chastising me for going on a jet ski last week during my first vacation in 5 yrs with my fiance. God forbid I had a day where I felt well enough for an hour to have some fun. To have your own family doubt you when doctor's classify you as severe is disheartening to say the least.

I still don't know when exactly RSD began for me but I haven't been without pain on a daily basis for six years when I had my first cervical surgery. Despite that, if I have even an hour where I feel well enough to dance or god forbid, jet ski! I grab it and try to relish every second of it knowing I may not get the chance again.
