hi, i just found out about ur support group last week. i was diagnosed with rsd in may after a surgery i had. i am having a hard time dealing with this. i am in a lot of pain it started from having a simple surgery in my elbow and wrist. i had a pinched nerves. after surgery i had extreme senstivity and lose of circulation and extreme pain. still have it today now my feet are loosing circulation. i am 42 years old and dont know how to cope with this. everytime i try to use my arm the pain gets so bad, my range of motion is limited sometimes. please give me some advise on how to cope with this. i have to get surgery in my other arm yet and they wont do it until my lt arm is better.

Wow its unreal how mutch your situation sounds like mine. I to had surgery april 29th though on a pinched nerve at elbow in one arm was going to do other then the wrists till my first arm wasnt healing. I,m still getting shoved around to different drs though, 2 have said rsd so im starting nerve blocks tommorow. I to would swear areas that arent involved are starting to hurt. May I ask how your incision at the elbow looks? I'm still confused on how to deal with this also , but I am learning there is nothing better than sights like this where you can find a shoulder, people that might be able to answer some of your questions and some one to listen...... Write as often as you want someone will respond and ask questions if they cant be answerd someone will try to help you find the answer or info........mindi
