About Me
I love to paint, draw and listen to lots of music. I am a I am a christian and I love to meet new paople. I enjoy reading a good book, especially fiction. I believe things always happen for a reason, and sometimes you have to reach deep to find answers but answers aren't always there so you have to sit back and find humor in it and Lord only knows there is enough humor to find when you have children and anuimals providing plenty of comic relief.

Thanks for the hug! I think I just needed a break for a while--not from friends, but from trying so hard to deal with everything. God is so good--I need to write about that journey in an entry!

Close Chronic Pain
I have reflex sympathetic dystrophy, degeneratie disc disease. Have been on lots of pain meds, spinal cord stimulator and will soon be using an electric wheelchair to get around. My hands are swelling to such a rate I have difficulty gripping as well as sleeping. There are other helth issues as well but between the bone disease and the neurological issues both cause alot of pain as well as alot of uncertainty.
Treatments
- Heat Somewhat Helpful
- Lidoderm Not Working
- had trouble with patches staying on as well as no real pain reduction.
- Nerve Blocks Somewhat Helpful
- I have a nero spinal cord stimulator, somewhat helpful but have to re program often and charging is difficult to do. I've also used sympathetic nerve blocks side effects were worse then the benefits
- Neurontin Not Working
- Oxycodone Working / Worked
- Lots of nausea andconstipation but i can get some sleep when i take it
- Physical Therapy Somewhat Helpful
- TENS Working / Worked
- Neuro stimulator helps but charging is a pain
- Topamax Too Soon to Tell
Close Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy
Recently diagnosed with this disorder and seems to be spreading rapidly. The pain is outrageous and getting aroound is so difficult. I have had many treatments for it, none seem to work for long and all the meds are overwelming.
