Hello, my name is Bethanna. I was diagnosed with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy last Monday. I've been reading up on it as much as I can, and doing what I can to pamper the foot that is affected.

I am newly married - married December 15th to my best friend. We were both a little side swiped by the diagnosis, I could have sworn I just twisted my ankle really good.

This diagnosis is both very scary and a relief. For the first time in I don't know how long my legs and hips are not wracked in pain thanks to the Elavil.

It's good to find this. I'm glad I'm here.

Bethanna,

Hello and welcome to NeuroTalk. Great to see you have come to be with us. You will find a great number of caring, supporting members here willing to help each other as they can. I see you have found our RST forum.

Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around.

Darlene

I see you've found the Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy forum here; lots of expertise and empathy over there. (Be sure to read up on all the variations; doctors are not always that cognizant of the different presentations and patterns that the condition may have.)

Hi Bethanna,
My name is Alison, I am 12 years old and I suffer from RSD in my left leg and right arm. If you need anything just ask, I will be more than happy to help you if I can.

Congratulations on getting married

Love
Alison
