    • About Me

      I am 46 year old female I was diagnose in January with RSD to my right hand from a work injury. The injury happened in 12/2007 and since all the wrong things were done and since workers comp has denied any pain management for me and medication my RSD has spread to full body, and it's getting worse, today I have to walk with a can as my balance is not there my doctor did sign the papers for me so I get the handicapped placard for parking my car.

      Hi, I am new here but I too have RSD among other chronic pain disorders. Nerve blocks and PT is the only way to get the RSD from progressing out of control. It took 7 for me and 6 months of major PT and pain but it was all worth it to walk again. That was 3 1/2 yrs ago and now I am beginning to experience more problems but I also have a host of other issues. I wish you luck and you fight all you can!!!! Have you gone to rsdsa,org for back up on RSD treatment to show WC? I will help any way I can, just ask..........a friend with RSD, Denise

      I hope that you are doing better and that you will finally be able to get some medication from your doctor(s) that will give you some much needed relief from the pain of rsd. I am praying for you.
