You mentioned some of the doctors you have seen, don't know alot about RSD. In this country also, many patients know more about it than their doctors do. I hope you get the help you need.
It is also nice to hear about your family. Your daughter and son-in-law sound like good souls, who are there for you. My son is a occupational PT, and has that caring attitude toward me. I feel blessed to have his as you do your family.
I will keep you in my prayers. I don't have RSD. But I do have pain issues, and go to a pain specialist who for the most part is very good to me.
You are welcome anytime to vent, and talk to us. I stayed with NT because of the supprt I received from all the good people here. I continue to come back as often as I can to give support to others that need it. I wish there were a cure for RSD and that people didn't have to suffer with it. Take care, ginnie

Thanks Ginnie, I could do with some extra prayers at the moment. I have very little control over the pain today, neither the breathing exercises nor the tai chi seem to be helping much at the moment. I think it's just one of those days we all get, where nothing helps. I can guarantee banging your head on the wall doesn't help (I tried it earlier

) That old wives tail about 'stubbing your toe to get rid of a headache' just isn't true!
