Hi Nancy, So sorry you have face involvement. Good suggestion to have eye exam and face. Do you have lumps under the skin that are sore when you press on them? Do you have matted eyes in the a.m.? Does your vision get worse by evening time. Mine do. I have trigeminal nerve disorder, though I don't know if is as a result of rsd or separate. The lumps I feel is rsd and vision and numbness down the left side of face. The temple pain is like an ice pick stuck in my temple. There is a Trigeminal Nerve site on this forum. Have numbness down left side of face. It usually affects one side of face.
I have had lymph nodes become involved with RSD. They become hard, sore, warm and painful. They are throughout our bodies. Does anyone know how they are connected with RSD.??? I know RSD affects our immune system.
Nancy, I'm so sorry you are going thru all this, but am grateful you will get assistance thru WC.
I turn 62 next year, so I should get a little help, though I qualify now.
I'm happy for you retiring in Feb. Hopefully your affairs are in order, that you have enough income. Nance, I haven't forgotten to get you a copy of a paper to send you. I just got my copier two days ago.
Take care, and please get your eyes checked out and add them to your WC if they are involved. Take care, loretta soft hugs
