TAG/CUBANASO...I had a 7 ft fall during a partol 4 1/2 years ago on a submarine. we took a sudden sharp angle while I was climbing down a latter. I lost my grip fell and landing almost vertically on my shoulderblade. I heard two pops and had the worst pain, I also lost total function of my arm. since then there is a crazy burning sensation in my back, a constant shooting pain from between my shoulder blades to my right hand, weakness in grip in my right hand, loss of sensation/numbness in my right hand/arm. My right shoulderblade is super sensative, without an undershirt a wool sweater feels like scrubbing steel wool on my back. The same area also gets red and swells, and my hand swells. and there is a stabbing pain between my shoulder blades at the apex of every breath. at least once a month something happens that flares up what evers wrong back there. when that happens I cant use my arm and the pain is unbareable. once I had to go to the ER and they gave me a shot of morphine, vicodin, and vallium and the pain was so bad the meds didnt even get me drowsy!

gtahvit Ill definately be getting that info from you. But I searched the VA disability rating charts, and they dont have a rating for RSD???
