Pain
Pain when I move
Pain when I don't
Pain when I stop
and Pain when I won't
my Pain you can't see
my Pain you can't feel
my Pain hurts me
my RSD is real

If you have Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, aka Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, then you know the feeling, the thoughts, and the emotions that my website and blog have attempted to capture.
Here are a couple of excerpts from sites dedicated to providing information for people suffering, including families and friends of those afflicted:
www.RSDS.org - The Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome Association of America (RSDSA) is a national not-for-profit organization, headquartered in Milford, Connecticut, that promotes greater public and professional awareness of CRPS, a painful neurological syndrome that may affect more than 1.5 million Americans.
We also fund research fellowships and evidence reports on CRPS. We educate those afflicted with the syndrome, their families, friends, insurance and healthcare providers, on the disabling pain it causes. We encourage individuals with CRPS to offer each other emotional support within affiliate groups. And finally, we are committed to raising funds for research into the cause and cure of CRPS.
www.RSDHope.org - The American RSDHope Organization is a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing awareness of RSDS/CRPS. Excellent informational website for those dealing with Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy / Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.
