Have inflammation and 'problems' with my sacro-iliac joint. Asked him if it could be anything to do with the CRPS, and he went...."C, R,..?" I said the full name and he said 'oh right' in a careless way. Examined my hip movement, always fun anyway , but he was really hands on, quite rough, and didn't ask or warn me when he grabbed my CRPS knee and thigh with his cold hands. Asking me if it hurt when he was yanking my leg around. Why yes it did hurt. When he pressed bits of my SIJ it was horrendous pain and hot burn, so he was pretty content with the dx.

I asked if the CRPS had any link and he was very dismissive of the idea. Hmm. Hard to take that seriously when he wasn't sure what it was... I have some voltarol gel stuff for it, and regular paracetamol (I laughed hollowly). Must avoid bending and twisting. Lol. Tell my kids and pets that. He thinks it will subside in a few weeks time.

Oh it hurts such a lot. No position is comfortable. Sitting on the sofa is very bad, but that's best for when I rest my feet and legs. Ho hum. Going to have to lie down upstairs....on my own. Boo.

Hope you guys are doing ok x
