the edema is is my cells not like a pool of fluid. i have had 3 abdominal surgeries each one worse that the one before causing more pain and edema.
i havent gotten a formal RSD diagnosis yet but my primary car thinks it is what i have and it makes sense to me. my first surgery was 1991 a C-section and the birth of my twins. i immediately had fibromyalgia but wasnt diagnosed for 3 years. then after 10 crippling years i had a healing prayer that cured it in an hour. it was a miracle! i am grateful for it. i was well for 5 years until my gallbladder surgery and had terrible pain and swelling immediately and was bed ridden. that was january 2005. november 2007 i had a big tummy tuck to remove all the swollen tissue and it was traumatic. the swelling grew twice as big and the tissue burning feeling
was unbearable! i have been through endless combos of pain meds and was still in pain and misery till 2 weeks ago. i am comfortable and looking for more answers and learning more about RSD.
Blessings
