I have been learning to live with my RSD. Implanted neuro stimulator helps , but have to keep reprogramming. Shattered l4 same. Radio-frequencys and epidurals help. Although last epidural for right leg pain hasn't helped as well. That's kind of scarry. Not sure what to do when injection don't work anymore.. Dr said nothing else can be done.

Thank you @suerc for being honest and sharing your current situation. Most times the impact of our causes becomes the greatest burden. Learning how to live with chronic pain becomes our biggest challenge. Unfortunately, ablations, epidurals, meds, etc...add to over sensitized sensors thus creating more disruption to our bodies and producing less relief.

I'm real sorry to hear you are going through this. I've been there and it wasn't until I learned how to deal with with chronic situations through 4 components of physical, emotional, behavioral and chemical changes, that I began to feel like I was getting my life back.

How are you handling your emotional state through all of this?
