Fattieratties, I'm going to assume, so don't take offense.
My wife has suffered with RSD for 10 years. To this day she insists I think she is over doing it, lying, pretending...on and on. In reality I know she has RSD, without a doubt. Me being a guy, her being shy, I supposed to be able to read her mind, but for the life of me, after 30 years of marriage I still can't. I've told her over and over again that I'm not in your shoes, I can not even imagine the pain you are in. You must tell me when you are feeling very bad otherwise I might assume.

Another words communication is so important and sometimes its hard to convey the pain that you feel. Being a male I'm sure this can be very difficult. Hang in there, there will be a cure soon.
