I tried to get information about crps to the hospital before my visit. They did print out some info for the staff that would be taking care of me, i even had a nurse i knew from high school and her husband has had crps for 19 years. But i didn't want them to learn just for me, i wanted them to learn for everyone that goes to this hopsital with crps. The pain clinic has srarted back up the epidural blocks to try and calm down my foot. I'll talk later, can't sit here too long. Hope you guys are all well.


Love

Hi Sue,
Thanks for letting us know about your surgery. I am so very very sorry your pain has increased so much. Hopefully the blocks will give you some relief. That was so nice you had nurse you knew in high school-I'm sure she was so compassionate because of her husband's rsd for 19 years. wow
I'm just getting over a 3 month flu. My immune system is so low. I have a lap top and it's so nice when I'm in bed. The price of the new lap tops have really come down. I'm on my 3rd one.
Take care, and hope you get some relief soon. loretta soft hugs
