I've been scouring the pages of the net trying to find an answer to a somewhat dicey question. What percentage of patient's diagnosed with RSD ever get "cured?" How many are able to go back to their original job? Is it even worth it for me to do all of that "desensitization" at home, keep up my PT at home because I can't even afford the copay, take all of these drugs and do all of these procedures when it really is "never going to happen?" I'm really early in my diagnosis, and everyone says that those have the best chance (diagnosed 10/18/08). But what does that really mean? This is so very disillusioning to me-maybe made worse from the holidays, maybe not. Maybe I'm just depressed more than previously. I am just so deeply unhappy and angry.

Anyone actually know what the chances are?
