I think it's Wonderful that you're actually doing it! Not just talking about it! I'd say, Yes, this is normal with rsd. My first suggestion is, that you start slowly. Start with warm ups and stretching. Maybe for a month or so, until it doesn't hurt so much. It's really important. 'Exercise in the rsd world, doesn't usually mean 'strengthening', that's gonna hurt! ( do you have TOS or anything besides the rsd?) Does your gym have a warm pool, that you can get in and 'resistance' walk? I'd guess that would be your first real exercise. Many people here rave about it. Then, before you shower and leave, perhaps a short stay in the hot jacuzzi? I'd be afraid of those bands, especially to begin with... Very happy for you!  Thanks! pete |

Anywho, I did a basic routine of bands (like in PT) and a couple sets of lunges; that was about @3 days ago. I feel like someone took a grater to my thigh muscles and the left side of my neck is really aching. I have done that little bit before and didn't feel this sore, but this is the first time since I have had RSD. Is this a normal reaction to exercise??!!?!? I can't believe how sore I am after so little exercise; MAN I feel old and I'm still in my 40's. I know, I know,.....I'm getting there.....a little too fast for my taste, though!!
