I do not think I want attention I just want to learn and see if I can beat this thing so I can go back to work and have a normal life again. No one heard me when I said how bad I burned it was like my arm and shoulder where on fire! now I cant enjoy life like I used to and my wife makes fun of me calling me a drug user and lazy, since I gained weight from all these meds I take it hurts me so bad to be called fatty I was always a sporty running track and playing vollyball, sorry for not being able to that anmymore, she mad me cry the other night because I cant seem to be able to please her anymore either I think it is the meds also but she called me more names like limp bisket OOH I jurt so bad I just want to crawl in a hole and die....oh well I guess this may help me
Hi there!! nice to meet ya! Wow! I am so very, very sorry that your wife thinks that you just want attention!! hmmm.. Of course you don't want attention, but you should be getting.. both help and support from your wife. Please know, I am not one to make trouble .. but this is plain wrong and I am truly sorry to hear this junk!! Well, you came to the right place, we can help ya deal with your RSD and other pent up rages we experience. I too had surgery from Carpal tunnal and the surgery is what caused me to have RSD I was in denial for a while there. seen 5 doc's, plus 2 specialists to finally open my eyes to it.. and it is for real! I am sory you cried. we RDS patients get so emotionally down and drained at times. It's ok to cry, we understand. Get you some good reading materials on the signs, symptoms of RSD, the effects of our meds. and show them to your wife. do you have a printer? that would be a great help. your wife.. and I am sorry to say this needs to get some help dude!! Now, as for you.. take a deep breath.. come here often, talk to us.. maybe your wife is really scared inside?? can be that she wants you back to the way you were? I'm sorry but she needs to love you, RSD,and most of all supporting you through this nasty beast! take care of yourself Love, Desi
