Thanks for the replies. I am amazed at how an illness can take away a persons personal life like the RSD does. I know other people have other medical problems but they still seem to be able to get out and go and do things that we can't seem to do. We have no sembelence of normal life at all.

I just wonder if any of us will ever get some of the normalcy back.

I'm wondering about the ones in remission. I know there are some on here. Have any of you got back to doing what should be normal everyday things.
