I dunno, this disease is crazy, so many little things that are so aggravating, but you are absolutely right, this disease is not a disease for the weak. And when we do get weak, it is through that weakness we gain our strength. I will keep you in my prayers as always. You might be an office visit away from a cure or some relief, that is worth a little anxiety to say the least. We are worth fighting for. We do deserve some comfort, compassion and a level of dignity in our life. The disease is bad, the pain is bad, but we are not. I do alot of meditation for pain and anxiety it has really helped me out alot. But the other day, I was so twisted up with fear, that none of my coping skills were working. But, I made it through, thanks to all of you wonderful people. God Bless You. Keep moving forward, you are almost there.

I will be going for the 15th of March..traveling the 14th.. This is my initial meeting with Dr. S..first consult..as you mentioned our first meetings are a bit nerve racking.. I guess it could be that..just tired of having to dicuss this RSD thing one more time..but again..as you said we gain strength from our weakness..so my jitters today will be balls of fire when I finally get there..right/?.. oh and no..I still have not started the morphine... I am a chicken....

You are always so thoughtful..thank you for your post..I enjoy hearing from you..Have a good rest tonight, my friend...Kathy
