HI..

My name is Craig and I was diagnosed with RSD in 1999 after I was bitten by a dog.

At first it was miss diagnosed with about everything under the sun.

After I was diagnosed I went through many sympathetic nerve blocks, that really did little for me. I am currently seeing a Pain Management doctor that is really great.

I have for so long been looking of someone else who is going through what I am going through. Most people have a very hard time understanding the symptoms of RSD, much less the level of pain. Since I have been here I have been able to talk to others with the same problems that I am having with RSD and it has helped just to be able to vent.

My hope for being in this group is to try to help other open up and talk about whats going on with them in there lives. To help research every avenue we can to maybe find whats out there in the medical community that might give us some relief from the symptoms of RSD. Be it pharmaceutical, homeopathic, acupuncture,medical treatment/procedures or holistic.

Craig
