I wish I had the magic pill for that one Cindi.....I ALWAYS pay dearly for having any fun

Do you take around the clock pain med or just 'as needed' ? I'm on the 'as needed' routine......I take extra to make it through going out and doing things, but when I slow down on the prn meds and stop taking them every four hours then WHAM ! I am DONE. Can't move, inflammation, fibro flare kicks in and rebound RSD pain from all of the ice packs I used to get through whatever fun event it was.

For you, it's football.....for me parrothead events and poker games (and, of course, family moments, but I have teens so those are getting fewer and farther between ). Can't stop doing the funnest things. Without those few golden moments.....when you almost forget about RSD and feel like 'a real person' again and LIVE, I don't think I could go on. Those moments are worth fighting for
