Certainly there is a "different appreciation" for the pain involved.

Hi Imahotep,
Well we certainly know that we react diffrently to pain and injury now, but I have had an exagerated pain response before I got RSD (never for long though) and that makes me think its quite possible you are be right about ischemic damage being present before RSD injury.
It seems very probibable that damage causing microvascular ischemia can build up over time with our injurys, but I tend to think it needs an inciting event at some point to start the whole dysfunctional process going.
Time to re-read Vics posts on IRI and to research more into this.. to find the cause will go along way towards finding a cure in my thinking, and more and more I see the research leading in this direction.
