Hello all!
Good question, great answers!

I'm sitting here typing (of course ), and took notice to my hands, (I have TOS as well), but this is rsd. My right (primary) hand is rather normal looking from the back, except my right forearm has those pink dots and what hair is left, is standing straight up. My left hand is swollen, as is the forearm. (moderately) I'd hafto point it out to someone who doesn't know rsd.
Flip over to my palms, the right hand is more mottled, the left is just RED. The forearm skin is tighter on the left (due to the swelling) the right is slightly wrinkled, it's almost anti-swelled! Resting my arms on the desk, (don't have my office chair) the left arm is definitely more painful (the swollen one).
My legs and feet act similarly, although not so independent of one another.
Cramps too, are common in the colder weather.

After looking at this,
I think I'll take some Aleve.....

Feel Well, and Be Happy Everyone.
God is with us!

Pete
