I developed RSD after an on the job injury in 1999. My RSD started in my right hand then moved up into my whole arm. My Spinal Cord Stimulator takes care of about 85% of my pain unless I use it to much then my hand flares up for days. I have had 7 years of dealing with workers comp. I finally had to break down and get me an attorney. I have read that if you have RSD you should not have surgery because you can develop it in that area. In my case after my first stimulator surgery I developed RSD in my hip. I have had numerous doctors tell me that this is also work related. But of course they want to keep sending me to their doctors until they hear what they want to. I hate taking medication but since my accident I have been severely depressed. Sometimes like a dummy I think that I am doing great and don't need to take it any more, and then it takes me 2 or 3 months to get to feeling better again.
At times I just want to be "normal again".
