I am shea (shay). I have had RSD for around 8 years now,
it is in just about everywhere but my left leg, chest and head. It started off
by twisting my ankle and spread after I had a procedure done. I have had
everything fro=m
twenty something bier blocks, lumbar block, lumbar epidural, TENs, biofeedback,
intensive pt, sono, water pt and numerous meds. I am a junior in college. A
double major in biology/biochemistry with Honors. I am not a
genius and yes the RSD makes it more difficult to achieve the things I want but
it doesn't stop me. I have been told numerous times to change my major due to
the RSD and I have persevered. I have good grades and am going to
apply to med school this June. My main advice is don't let anyone tell you what
your limits are, only you can know them. If you like, feel free to e-mail me.
