Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD)

[reruho]

I found a great website called the Health Behavior News Service. It has a section called the Prepared Patient. It is filled with lots of good information. The link below is to one their articles about developing a Personal Health Record (PHR). There are several links to websites that will help you develop a PHR.

I feel having a PHR should be considered essential for every RSD patient. I may be looking at ways to streamline what I presently have.

There is also an article called “Larger patients: In search of few lectures and better health care.” It was a very interesting article about how some medical personnel are fat-fixsated and spend more time discussing your weight and not the reason you are there. It offered some useful tips for patients.
