New to all of this
Don't know the 'rules' for posting yet, so bear with me.
Bought 4 books after receiving diagnosis 6 weeks ago. Not what I'm looking for.
What I'm looking for is some statistics, example:
What are the chances my RSD will advance/stabilize/remit? Does everyone eventually wind up in "stage 3"?
At age 62, I was hoping that my chances of keeping my right leg/ankle "as is" (not much worse) is at least 50-50? I can walk without a cane and find that wearing compression stockings underneath my socks prevents excessive swelling at the end of each work day. My right ankle is still 40% bigger than my left, and my whole lower leg and foot is reddish-purple every morning when I get out of the shower.....but otherwise, life's pretty good (so far).

Which thread should I read first?

Thanks!
