Can you have RSD in your back? Does anyone here have it?

I thought of asking it myself and would like to know the answer also...
IMHO, I think you can, I myself think I may b/c of my congenital spondylolisthesis and Degenerative Disc Disease. But I am new to all of this, so I will let the experts handle the question.

I seem to have it most everywhere. Diverticulitis from two years ago still hurts I think.

Yes my husband has had RSD in his back for over 10 years and it has been progressively worse with each passing month. This is a horrible condition and my heart goes out to anyone who suffers from it. ANY suggestions on treatment would be very appreciated.

Couple of things he can try.

Yes, ma'am I have it in my incision sites where my scs was placed.

I have it in my back...spread there after a lumbar sympathetic block. It's been almost 2 years now and it really sucks. I highly recommend desensitization therapy...I was miserable until I did that for my back. It's an awful process but so worth it in my opinion because afterwards I could start to sit more normally, wear more normal clothes, etc. Hot baths with epsom salts at least once and sometimes twice a day, as well as lidoderm patches with heating patches...especially when I have a bad flare. I also bought a Columbia omni-heat shirt (serval sizes too big) for the winter to wear under everything. Just helped keep me warm since the cold causes so much pain.
