Welcome Erica!
You'll find lots of information, and friendship and support here.
Glad you joined!

It's a certain possibility that your RSD is spreading, it tends to do that.

What is your treating doctor?
Neurologist, Pain management, family doctor?

I'd get on the phone with your doctor, (I hope you have a neurologist),
and I'd think (I am NOT a doctor!) that you may be started on water therapy, warm pool so you can excercise, and move all those muscles!

As I'm sure you know, as RSD spreads, it becomes a "Use it or Lose it" syndrome.

Please, spend some time reading here.
And, call that doctor!

Another question, do you take anything for pain?
If not, maybe aspirin, Aleve, or motrin might help a bit...
(I find that Tylenol does very little, because it has no anti inflammatory aid).

Hope you feel Better!!

Pete
