Hi everyone my name is Christy and I was diagnosed with rsd in the begining of April after suffering from this intolerable pain for close to 7 months. In that time i was at the er 5 times, saw 3 doctors had many tests and one of those drs told me i was crazy, boy that helped. I know have the disease in my upper right quadrent affecting my shoulder hand and chest wall.I have been doing non stop research as well as aggressive therapy and treatments. What i would like is to talk to real people that have this rsd and ask questions about, well everything that comes up in day to day life. Right now I don't believe that I am coping well after all I went from being a  independent, strong women that was always on the go to a girl in a wheelchair that cant get out of her house. But I guess you all know that story one way or another. I look forward to chating with you.Christy
