The fact that you are young, and were diagnosed reasonably fast are on your side.

It sounds like the book 'Break Through Pain' by Shinzen Young may be of help. fmichael recommended it to me years ago... He is one of our most informed forum posters. It has a small book and a CD and is around $20. Shinzen explains how to use Mindfulness Meditation to help with the pain. I have had RSD ten years now, and it has helped me more than anything else has. For some reason, most medications have not helped me much. I think when you first get RSD, it is darned scary, and this book really helped me take the fear away from being in pain.

Many will disagree probably, but I do believe in SOME cases blocks can and does cause spread. I have seen it!!!. If I were in your shoes (if i could wear shoes lol) I would run away FASt from any more blocks. Just my opinion. Fondly-Carol
