I guess if I had looked into the comments here what with losing the house and moving into my daughter's basement. Plus the RSD flaring and the meds throwing any sleep cycle I may have had out the window. Any more important congratulations

Hi Julian, I am so sorry you are having issues with sleeping. I don't know why this is happening, but maybe you need to speak with your doctor. It may be time for him to change your meds. To me, it seems quite dangerous for you to be in such a…

sleep issues

I am in real need of your help, I have been taking the same medications now for approximately a year and suddenly the last few monthsI have been experiencing ridiculous sleep patterns. Well actually there is no pattern one day I could be up in a reasonable time, for me, about 10 in the morning and stay awake all day until I go to bed at approximately 11:30 PM. The next day no matter how many calls my wife makes to my cell phone which is by my ear or how loud and how many alarms go off I sleep…See More

alternative medications

This will have to be short as i have lost my voice. The family have given all the jokes about me being silenced, and as a result i cannot use my dictating software since my right hand (which is primary rsd site) and the left elbow are both running off the pain charts. I wanted to mention a point Nicole made in a recent blog to a producut mixture that assisted her. If anyone is interested, I am a distributor of both Limu and Nikken products.

 

I am truly thankful to Nicole for…

I feel for all of you have lived with chronic pain for such a long time. I have just gotten a small glimpse of what it's like. I bless you on your journey and may you find comfort in friendship. Juls

Julian,

Hello! We met at the event on April 23rd @ LV hospital. I can't find your business card but so much wanted to contact you. But you found me.  I've lived with back pain and severe spinal degeneration for about 25 years when it started with a disc herniation. Working means so much to me. Having lost it because of my disability makes me feel totally useless and a failure. I am glad you welcomed me. I am in West Bethlehem just about a mile from the Allentown line.

Jillian,
Nice to meat you. I have had "full body" RSD for 15 years. My orininal injury was multiple fractures to the right metatarsals. I was a RN prior to my injury. I look forward to chatting with you.

Dear Julian

Wow! You guys are on the ball! Thanks for friending me, I will add some details about me a little later as I am off to work...yes I still work PT, part of my coping mechanism.

Hi Julian.

Thanks for the message, wow 29 years is a long time.I struggled with 6 1/2 years. I cannot be courageous at the moment with this monster and still get quite cross with my ankle and foot and try to distance myself from this problem. I know this is the wrong thing to do, but I am having some help to deal with all of these emotions I have welling up inside me. I want to cry but cannot. I've considered suicide and had to have my anti deprssants increased, so really not in a very good place at the moment.

Thanks for the welcome Julian. I am so glad I found this group. I have suffered with chronic pain since 2005 after having brain surgery that had unpredicted side effects. have a good night - Emily
