I was really bad for over two years . Then dr swArtzmann finally gave me a diagnosis of rsd. The kettimine treatment really helped me my face was so big and pale all my internal organs aren't functioning properly and put on 30 lbs. With the 2 week infusion I lost 25 lbs during the two weeks of treatment . AnywAy do u guys think this fall caused this. It took over a year to really hit me hard dead in my tracks. My dr says it is and I'm trying to get my employer to put me back on workers comp. I have fool body rsd and I'm bed rident for weeks and months at a time. My other dr dr gettson out of cherry hill also said it was the fall. In the mean time I just went to my court hearing for ss disab..it looks pretty good that I'm approved but nit really certain.
I would say it did. My injury didn't start to effect me till a few months later really. They gave me a possible diagnosis of CRPS about 2 weeks after I they saw me knee. But I did not feel any real effects for a good while. stage 3 hit me like brick wall(2 years later as well). one day I was ok, next I had to beg for a ride at 3 AM to the hospital
