I do meditate daily, and have a beautiful and energetic young little girl, who keeps me grounded. However, I feel like I have to be strong for my daughter, and for my family, as I think it scares them more than myself sometimes. Well, I'm suffering really bad and I sometimes wish I could just be selfish and have someone to be strong for me! I don't have that in my life. My husband left me a year after I got sick, most of my friends ran away, and even my doctors seem bewildered by me. Sigh, does any of this make sense? I feel like I'm rambling.

Yes, I am on quite a bit of medication, wish I thank my lucky stars I have at this point, because it literally saved my life. Story for another time. But, it only helps a bit, and I'm still suffering a 9/10. I haven't had any med changed in over a year. So, I feel like maybe that could help but nobody is willing. Frustrating!

Thanks again. I do hope this finds everyone doing ok today. It means a lot to me that you all took time to respond, knowing how much you are all suffering. Plus, energy doesn't come easily to us, so thanks.
Hi,

My heart goes out to you. If you feel you need some additional help don't
hesitate going to the ER where out of control pain can be treated. Just
tell them you are not interested in being treated like a drug seeker but if sincere about wanting to know about CRPS, most hospitals have
access to obtain information on it. I know on one occasion my daughter
who had CRPS type 1 was having surgery for another medical condition
when one of the nurses asked her what CRPS was. The nurse left the
room then later returned after looking it up and expressed sympathy toward
my daughter. The world is full with its share of jerks but there are also
some wonderful and caring people in the medical profession as well. God
bless you. I know you are scared but you are not alone. May our loving
mother, father God hold you and be with you and comfort you during this
crisis in pain.
