More RSD/CRPS awareness from a MD news report...
 
Here are links to a news story from tonight and last night (two parts). Story was on WMDT 47 in MD. Great story for some much needed awareness.

Thanks so much Nanc :)

A great story, well written and documented. Nice and simple and clear for a change. Let's hope more news folk pick up on this 'bizarre' disease lol, and start talking about it, then maybe the good people with the research money will shunt a bit more our way and find out what on earth is making it so bizarre and untreatable!!

Bram.

RSDSA posted the first part on Facebook and yesterday I went to the news site and found the second part.

Thanks for posting this. I think that should be mandatory reading for all of our doctors, and pt/ot.

So glad it is being brought up more. Here where I am from I say I have RSD/CRPS they look at me like I am crazy and say " is it rare? Ive never heard of it ever!) Crazy how something so common is so unnoticed! Thank you for posting!

At this point if they have never heard of RSD they need to go back to school.
