I am back at work and happy but a little worried
I am so happy and hope the neurontin continues to stop the pain for a long time. I love my job so much. I have worked at the same job for 32 years. I do brain scans(EEG 's), heart, and vascular studies daily. I also started doing a test that I have not done in 25 years and love it. I worked 10 hours today and as of now no pain. I am really worried because my right hand is where the RSD started. I worked the heck out of it today. What worries me is ,I had burning in my face and left arm today but not my right arm!!! My face is red/ flushed and I feel like my blood pressure is high because it feels warm too. While at the doctor the other day it felt the same way but my blood pressure was fine.I am so afraid it may be spread. My left hand was stiff this morning for the first time. Can't understand why they would be burning but not the right side. I hope I can work another 8 years or my retirement will be greatly affected. I am 54 and hope for so many reasons I can hold out that long. I am so independent and love to wait on my husband. He is so spoiled. After 30 years I still want to make him happy by surprising him with all kinds of different recipes and deserts. I love to cook. Also my right hand looks smaller than the left one and when I straighten the right one it kinda pops. It feels like they are gears in the fingers. I can hear it sometimes.My surgery was October. 4th, 2013 so only 3 months ago the RSD started
