Hi Mel, RSD affects the Limbic System in the brain, therby causing depression. Also the losses we experience are heavy duty and sad, causing depression.
I have RSD full body and internally. Have many parts of my body that feel 105 degrees internally coming thru the skin and feels HOT. Inflammation is a symptom of this fire. I run a fever,-how high are you talking about? I also have fibromyalgia which causes inflammation.
I agree with Mike, important to get to the source of the fever. your friend, loretta
