Re: Welcome to nhhdguy.... new to rsd

[Guest guest]

Welcome nhhdguy (and I hope that your mother didn't really name you that). I hope that you'll find the group to be a suupportive place and that at least some of your questions will be answered. I'm very sorry to hear that you have developed RSD and I think of each us here would agree it's "not fun." An understatement.

I'm amazed that you already have had the SCS implanted when it's been less than 2 months since your diagnosis....You must have one fast doctor !!! Regarding the vision changes, there are some folks here who reported that although it might be difficult to pinpoint the RSD as the cause. I know that I've had significant vivion loss in the last year but mine may be due totally unrelated to RSD or something secondary to the RSD rather than the RSD itself.

The group here is terrific and the folks are quite friendly. Hope to see you posting. Barbaranhhdguy wrote:
