Living with rsd
Hi everyone, new to here. Trying to find people who can relate to me. Long story short...started with severe burning about a year and a half ago (felt like my skin was melting on my left arm and left part of rib cage)..originally surgeon thought something went wrong with my prior cervical fusion but everything was negative. After me never giving up and showing him my arm was changing colors and later realizing I was having horrible temperature changes and finally atrophy setting in was I finally dianosnosed with rsd. As I moved on to find a dr to help I was lead to the same place of needing a scs. It had a few difficulties at first but worked very well for my arm, 3 months later I had a peripherial stimulator to cover the rib cage. My pain has substantially reduced....but my body and mind has taken such a beating...I don't know where to go from here. I still have trembling and weakness in my hand and arm...leads leave me restricted..anyone feel this way?
