Hi there mrshippie,



I hope we'll be able to help you, just ask anything you'd like advice on, I know people here will try their best. How do you say your name - as in "mrs hippie" or "mr shippie" ? Just wondering

How did you get RSD in the first place, and how long have you had it?

As always, I can really recommend browsing through the previous posts, there's not much we haven't covered, and it may well help you to get a better sense of what having RSD/CRPS is all about.

We're a big mixture, people here have many degrees of "severity", but of course each of us is so different, and everything affects us differently - and we have several forum members who are either allergic to or drug-intolerant, so yes, you're in the right place! And you're right, we have to be very careful indeed when it comes to surgery...

So fire away with anything you'd like to ask,
all the best
