I know many of you have mentioned Epsom salts, heating pads, down pillows in car rides, etc.....but are there specific brands or types of things or fabric contents that you find most soothing or beneficial to you??? I would like to start acquiring an RSD "survival pack" of items (preferably finding things on sale a little bit along) that might help and come in useful when the need arises (or better yet......BEFORE the need arises!).
I thought it could be useful to read each others experiences and what works for them, and perhaps we could ALL pick up a few tips we hadn't thought of before.
Thank you all in advance for responding!!  |
Hi. I have RSD in my legs. Anything that rubs my legs hurts. So high count sheets, or flannel. Heat is your friend. Sitting in the sun will do wonders for you. (They found that people in the North, who don't get much sunlight,actually are more prone to RSD, go figure) Body pillow with feathers in a flannel cover....LOVE.
