Kevscar1 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 With the most painful condition in the World. http://web.me.com/medicaljustice/MEDICALJUSTICE/McGill.htmlI have suffered for 3years now with RSD, http://www.rsdhope.org/crps-symptoms.html which can be triggered by something as trivial as a sprained wrist or ankle and I am one of the lucky ones other have not been diagnosed until 10, 15 or 20 years after the onset, this condition will spread or flare up in another part of the body in 77% of us. In April 2011 it spread from my hand up to my elbow and now it looks as if it's started in both legs as well. According to one American survey 66% of us will never be able to work again and we are 900% more likely to commit suicide than any other group.Based on US and Dutch figures we probably have around 250,000 undiagnosed sufferers in the UK but due to the ignorance of approx 95% of the NHS about this condition only approx 12000 suffers have been diagnosed and there are only according to my specialist around 15 real specialists in this country. Because of this I have created http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/31344 Please take the time to read it and if you are willing sign it. If you want to do more then ask your family, friends, work colleagues, your own Doctors and anyone else you know to do the same. There is also a poster which can be displayedhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v693/Kevscar/petition.jpg I have included photographs so you can see what RSD does.
