Congratulations on graduating.

It seems the RSD has favorite ways to spread and affect victims. Mine started in my hand and is now in my entire shoulder area and hand. This is probably pretty typical since this was once called "shoulder-arm syndrome". But I also have it in my left foot which is where I sustained the injury which apparently caused the condition to flare. I have a spot in my groin where a doc shoved what felt like a screwdriver in to insert a catheter to look at the heart. I have a spot on the inside of my right elbow where a mri injection went bad. And I guess I have a little on my ear due to poor choice of surgical instrument. These spots seem to me much more ephemeral than the ear and they seem to be trying to go away completely. I haven't felt pain from the injection in months or the catheter in days. The ear probably won't last either and I'm taking grape seed extract hoping it will help. The ankle was very steady until recently but seems a little better now. I'm sure I'm walking a little more and having a lot less trouble at it.

This probably won't apply to everyone but perhaps yours will fade from the new sites as well.

Best of luck. I hope you get much better very soon.
