Welcome jeany...

I'm so sorry for your RSD and painful experience... I, too have RSD so we are speaking the same language...a few tips is to never use ice on the affected areas and keep a journal of pain scales and daily events.. I have a SCS not the pain pump.. I know in the past we had a few people with the pump and I can recall one woman who got her life back.. Even riding horses again.. I wish I could give you more exact details but I m certain others will help you along... I want to welcome you and say.. Please, feel free to ask questions and share what ever you wish.. We are here to help.. A great family!!

take care, Kathy
