Coping

Who can help patients and families cope with reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome?

Learning to live with reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome can be difficult. You may have to make changes in your relationships, in your work situation, or in your leisure-time activities. Any of these changes are stressful. It helps to talk about your feelings with a family member, close friend, or someone else who has RSDS. If you find that you are faced with problems you don't know how to solve, ask your doctor to suggest a counselor or a psychologist.

What are some resources for people with reflex sympathetic dystrophy syndrome?

For more information about RSDS, you can contact the Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Syndrome Association (RSDSA), P.O. Box 502, Milford,  CT 06460, (203) 877-3790
