Hi there,
I am so sorry about what you are going through ((hugs)) Please let me introduce myself: My name is Alison, I am 12 years old and I suffer from RSD in my left leg and right arm. I first developed RSD in my leg on the 16th March 2007 after an ankle sprain. After 4 months of physiotherapists telling me to stop imagining the pain, I was diagnosed with RSD, I felt as though my life had just ended. Immediatley after diagnosis my PM doctor performed a "Guanethidine nerve block", which caused me to lose my balance (I can't walk my leg shoots out in front of me) 2 months later my PM doctor prescribed me "Amitriptyline" to try and help me sleep but I suffered from a nasty side effect of "blurred vision", this resulted in a knock to my right arm. My arm began to swell, I got the burning pain, colour changes etc. 2 weeks later, I was diagnosed with RSD in my arm. The RSD in my arm has been into remission, but the RSD keeps flaring up when the weather is cold etc. I hope this link helps you: http://www.rsdrx.com/rsdpuz4.0/puz_105.htm If I can help you in any way please let me know Thanks
