I've been wondering how you are coming along, thanks for the update. GOSH GIRL! This is a lot. I'm not sure if this is good news, but I think its better to have the devil that you know (CRPS) than a new devil (MG) to cope with. I am glad to know you found a doc who gave you a thorough assessment and a well-reasoned set of options. That's worth a ton right there.

Are you getting support from family/ friends? I know you've told us in the past that your husband is a gem, but we need to lean on someone else too so we don't burn out our spouse. Well, we are here for you and hope it helps some.

Warm wishes,
Lottie
Hi Lottie, and thanks for your reply! Yeah, I think the news is good although it still sucks Now, if I could find a PM dr who is as good as this guy is...

You are correct, my husband is a gem and I am so fortunate to have him. I do wish there was more support around me though. He never acts like he is tired of hearing me complain or anything like that, but I think it has to wear on him sometimes. He tells me often that he wishes he could do something more to help me. Most of my family is great, but none of them live around me and they are all busy with their families, etc. Also, most of them really do not get it (shocker right?). I really do not have many friends, especially near by.

I appreciate the support I find here, that is for sure! I know I haven't posted much lately, but I have been lurking. It has really been tough with all going on lately...so overwhelmed!

Thanks again
Nanc
