I came home and put on a lidoderm patch and finally got some relief.

Between the hotflashes ( menopause ) and the zinging, I was ready to scream. I seem to be so short tempered lately, I hate loud noises and excessive banter... I just want to tell everybody to shut up. What is up with that?

Okay I vented. On a different note, several years ago I had an ulnar nerve transposition and I was wondering if people with nerve entrapment issues more susceptible to RSD? I didn't have any problems with that elbow after surgery except with a little ache once in awhile.

And does anybody else get nasty cramps in their calves, you know ladies... the ones you get when you are pregnant?

I am probably barking up the wrong tree but I really would like to know what is wrong with me.

Thanks in advance


Hello there,

I am sorry you are feeling this way. My heart goes out to you as I know what you are dealing with now.
Being caught without a proper diagnosis is so very frustrating but your doctors need to be treating your symptoms regardless of what your final diagnosis is.
Are you on any anti-seizure medication like Neurontin or Lyrica to help you cope with the tingling and burning?
I hope that something will happen soon that can get you onto the right path towards pain relief.
Take care
Tayla
