People look confused and perplexed when I try to explain RSD...it's so exasperating to try and convey what it is.....
Often I will suggest that they look it up on the 'net for a complete picture of the disease..

Lately, I have been saying it is similar to neuropathy..I also tell them the nerves in my body are short-circuiting, causing deterioration of muscle, bone, etc, along with excruciating pain....particulary burn pain....
they seem to understand this....sometimes
