Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if those of you who are living in PA have been having a rough time lately. I have been really bad since last week. I am still working and it is really getting to be an effort to make it through the day. I have had full body RSD for about a year and a half now. Unsure what caused it. Had a bad back injury 15 years ago and walked on my toes for about 2 years it eventually healed with seeing several differnet drs. and a chiropractor. He is the one that eventually helped me. I also was an exerciser for many years and had a stress fracture and a tear in my miniscus ab ut 2 years ago. RSD started about 6 months later. My doctor seemed to think it was from the injury 15 years ago.I am getting the ketamine treatments don't have another RX until 2nd week of Nov. I take Nortryptiline 100mg at bed and Tramodol 50mg for pain. I have a script for Vicodan which I hardly ever use. Mostly because I am still working and can't take them. I tried Neurotin and Triliptal and I couldn't get to a high enough dose to be effective before the side effects were too much for me to handle. My neurologist at the time said my levels were toxic. I don't know if I need a change in my meds.
Ok after all that rambling Just want to know if anyone else is having such a bad week.
I am so frustated I could scream. The pain is just too much to handle lately.
Hopeful
