welcome back suz66. I am sorry to hear about your spread. I am not sure as far as the timing of spreading. I am in over 2 years and now am having difficulty with both feet. Most days I do pretty good. It's the end of the day when both feet hurt. (esp. in the ankles) It sounds like a good idea to have an xray of your hips done. As far as your mobility in 20 years just remember we can only live for today. We have no idea what the future holds.

I think of many of you and remember you all in my prayers; since I know the Lord knows you all by name. =) Anywho my doctor says that my RSD has spread to my hips. I can hardly walk now; I use a cane when it rains or is very cold. I have to support myself when I first get up in the morning. I have heard that RSD only spreads in the first year, but it has gradually moved to other parts over the years. I am a bit fearful of how my mobility will be in 20 years. Hip trouble runs in my family, so maybe I need an Xray to make sure nothing else is going on, but don't want surgeries. Also, the bunion on my other foot is getting worse....Oh well, I guess I am just rambling..... my warranty must be running out on my body. Ha! Anywho, I hope you are all well and that my "getting this off my chest" didn't ruin anyone's day. Lol! Blessings and soft hugs to all. Suz66  |
