Diane,
Welcome to the forum.
Wow! So sorry about how long you've lived with this monster. I've only been dealing with it 4 years now but can certainly relate.
After reading a lot of posts I feel lucky to have a neurologist who is very understanding and knowledgeable with RSD.
She told me where it will be spreading and she was right. I guess I lucked out. How hard it will hit is still a mystery though.
Why should anyone be afraid to tell a doctor anything? Aren't they here to help?
I'm sure I can't tell you anything that you haven't heard before but I wanted to at least welcome you to the family...

Hello Jimbo and thank you... I am so sorry you have RSD, It's not easy to live with seems as much as we try and kick the RSD out its like a bad house quest it never leaves. So you do what you can and push it aside. Hobbies are great, i must of done them all. i craft now cards scrapbook its easy light and have lots of machines to help me, even in the kitchen smile. I just want to say thanks i will write more tomorrow my finger isn't to well tonight and that is what i type with so i will get you later thanks again.. D

Diane,
I agree about finding hobbies to sidetrack our minds a bit. I'm either looking around in computer world, reading my kindle or playing my keys (which is my avatar pic).
