Default Didn't want to hijack "I can work" thread

I wanted to ask a few questions but didn't want to hijack the thread with them.

1) Is the pain of RSD not enough to render someone disabled?
2) If so how is our pain measured?
3) Do they only determine our disability on our function?
if so, how can they when we are pushing through pain just to accopmplish brushing our teeth or walking across the room?

I just don't understand the determination process and can't imagine anyone that does not have RSD understanding how unbearable it is at times (most of the time) even with medicine.

Thanks for taking the time to answer!
