that's so sad that she had to give up her dancing classes.It sucks being in that much pain. It also sucks when people don't believe you are in pain.

my daughter had 5 episodes of RSD One thing that MAY have helped, was the active ingredient in the cough medicine Delsym, which has been shown to reduce pain "ramp up". BUT I believe she may now have gastritis as a result of the constant Aleve & Advil she took. Always be very careful to take these medications with a full glass of water.and best wished to everyone with this horrible condition, including their caregivers.

That's it in a nutshell.

Such a sad, sad story! God, she stretched a little too far one day and her life as she knew it was suddenly over!

I think the way Cynthia Toussaint was treated was disgraceful. I admire her so much for becoming an advocate.

I hate when they blame the patient when they don't know what is going on.
