I don't think this has been mentioned on here but this is RSD awareness month. It's being talked about on Facebook by different groups. I was wondering if anyone knew if any shows or news are talking about it this month.

I don't think it's awareness month in all states. We have been trying for the last several years to pass an education and aweareness bill in OH. We are close but haven't done it yet. There haven't been bills passed in all states the number is low.

I know that Avon has just done something for the RSD involving sales and Macys' just has an RSD day and collected money for it.

HI there SBowling,
How are you feeling to day!
November RSD/CPRS Awareness Month is a national movement, there was one in May and now November. We literally have hundreds participating and we are trying to get as many people as we can involved. We have the disease, we know about it because we suffer 24/7, so we are making others aware, we are signing petitions for treatment of chronic pain, we have several awareness groups, RSDSA is an organization that works to promote education and information about RSD. There is a lot going on, it is just that It is a begining. Being active is a great non chemical pain distraction. Angel soft ((((hugs))))
