Publisher's Synopsis
The True Story Written by The girl who Survived
Local Girl Writes Book, Being Published about Unknown Disease
When was the last time someone tried to sell the idea of a book about R.S.D. (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy)? In today's world, regardless of race, career, gender, etc. RSD has no limit. So little is known about RSD, but so many more cases are being diagnosed. I have been preparing a book, Soul Searching: Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy a Victim of, day and life of living with this crippling and emotional disease. Soul Searching, addresses anyone who has this disease and their families who just can't comprehend what the patient is going through. Included in this book are well over four years of research on RSD with a broad range of quotations and details with a more approachable understanding of the disease. During my research in 1997 well over 7,000,000 people in the United States were diagnosed with RSD and the numbers keep climbing. RSD is a crippling nerve damage disease. When caught in time it can usually be maintained with treatment. If not, RSD can cause paralysis in patients. How have I become such an expert on this subject? I am a person who lives every day of my life with RSD. Clueless when I was diagnosed, but now on the road to recovery, though the symptoms still occur from RSD. After reading Soul Searching you will understand the complexity of RSD and the fear of this crippling disease.
