i am so lucky that i was sent to the right doc who has been able to help me. just before i was diagnosed i had strange things happen to me. i had surgery on my R shoulder and it started to break out around the incision, down my arm, my back... and it wasn't pimply. it was red sores. very strange. THEN the right side of my face looked like something exploded on me! i actually wish i would have taken pictures because it was all connected. once i began treatments, the swelling, the redness and the acre of bumps on my face went away. i have been very fortunate to get relief from the blocks. they have been hurting like hell, but i will take the 2 minutes of agony compared to all the other.

i'm so sorry that you are hurting. but you really need to get another opinion and a doctor with some bed-side manner.

shalom,
angie
