Ooops - sorry, I didn't mean to phrase it like that!! no offense taken at all - it was my phrasing!!

What I meant was welcome to somewhere where we all understand what this is like.

I know lots of people with mild RSD who recover really well and move on with their lives and have no more problems. That's why support groups can be scary to newbies. The people here are mainly those who haven't recovered and are years into pain. However, for every one of us on here there are 20 or 30 or maybe more people who have made a full recovery and never arrived on websites like this - because they haven't had the need to find it or need it.

RSD comes in all shapes and sizes - many people get it very mildly and with some PT, blocks etc many make a full recovery. Some make a full recovery with no intervention at all!!
