Default scared, stressed and just plain tired

I have RSD in my left hand up to my elbow and also my shouder. My shoulder doesn't always burn/hurt etc. Anyway, I have been really scared this past wk. My right arm is hurting so badly. I know I am over comensating for my left and drive with one arm, I only use the left driving if I have to. I do use the left but not as much as I probably should. So my right is such a bad ache. Mostly from the top of my hand into my elbow if I try to even pick up a drink. I am so scared this is spreading. I have been having a hard time lately. I am on 300mg Lyrica and 60 of Cymbalta and a compound cream with ketamine + in it, I made an appt to see the nurse pract (Dr booked) this wk. This is wc and they make things so hard, i am afraid of how this will be handled. As it is they cut off my benefits except medical because I am max med. improv and want me to go for an IME for a permanancy rating. I have no income, my husbands was cut back because of the economy, denied unemployment and now we are 3 mo behind on the mortgage. I am so stressedout and scared. I just want to go back a yr and a half, maybe if I had done something different this wouldn't have happened.

Sorry about ranting.I feel like this is my lifeline because nobody understands and I can come here and know I am not alone. Thank you all for that but I wish none of us were here.
