Dear Vic,

I know I've never talked to you before but I would like to say thank you so very much for all of your insights and obvious hard work. What you say about ischemia is the first thing that has made since to me since my own diagnosis. I am not a doctor, just an LPN but everything the pm, neuro's, pcp's and so on just didn't add up! I always knew there was an element of hypoxia, obviously, because of the cyanosis to my arm and coldness to my hand. Nobody even tried to explain that, I also assumed it was because they honestly didn't know what was causing it anymore than they know what causes rsd. I hope and pray you will continue posting and sharing your information, I have done lots of research myself but unfortunately I am a better nurse than computer wizard and don't know how to post the links that I find onto a different web site. By the way do you take trental by any chance? just curious Thanks again, Vic , I appreciate it more than you know, jennyk
