Hi Breezy,
Just wanted to check in and say hello. You are dealing with so much, your mom and dad's health, while you yourself have RSD. I lost my Mom at 46 and am so grateful I could be with her the last few months. And my Dad at 59 and got to be with him a couple of years. I know how difficult it is, but not from the prospective of having RSD and caring for them. Are you on any antii-anxiety meds? This is one that has helped me.
But since my Dr. changed my sleeping med, he cut the anti-anxiety med in half and I have been able to decrease my vicodin also. He is doing a study for the pharmaceutical company-seroquel is the sleep aid. Ambien wasn't working and I wasn't able to go to sleep until 5-6 in the morning. I'm not in the study, he is almost done with it. He said that wasn't acceptable and played a big part in my pain, and general health.
I hope you are take some time for yourself each day. I know that's difficult, but important. Thinking of you every day. Your friend, loretta
