Heart Thank you, mrsD!

Hi mrsD,

Oh, thanks for the clonidine suggestion!
I had read about clonidine and had forgotten already.
My memory is not the best right now. I will write this all down for my appointment.
I will also do a search on clonidine, as you've suggested.

I will talk with the compounding pharmacist, as well, prior to my appointment. It will help to facilitate getting something prescribed tomorrow.

I will increase the vitamin C, pronto.

Thanks so much for suggestions. This is all moving along rapidly. Every test which involved any form of pressure on tissue/nerves made this all worse each time, immediately. I had to have the ultrasound testing and one of the techs was not well-trained and put so much pressure on, I haven't recovered from that ultrasound. (Too much pressure also skews the view and can cause a false reading by the radiologist.) I have gotten to where even the lightest touch is too much now.

I am supposed to wear compression socks for the thrombosis. I have worn them since my last episode with this in my feet/legs. I cannot do it now, it's too painful. I just have to keep my feet up and keep doing ankle pumps and the alphabet.

I am deeply grateful for the suggestions offered.
