Hi,
I am new here and am so thankful I found this board. I sometimes feel pretty alone because if you look at me you don't see what I go through, so it is really hard for people to understand. I find a lot of people who don't care to know, it is more of a pain for them (at least that is how I feel). I have a lot of issues and I think they just feel over whelmed with it all. I have had thyroid cancer, been in several accidents, one very serious and have a TBI from that accident. Had a partial knee replacement done in 99 and have found out that the Dr. put the top piece in crooked and now I have to have a total knee replacement. Waiting to see when that will be.
I have had RSD for over 20 years. I was very blessed to have had a Dr. that realized what I had and got on it quickly. I have had a lot of LSB and praise Yahweh they have worked every time. I had a lumbar sympathetic block done in Aug. 2010 due to pain in my right foot and leg, it has always just been in my foot but has now moved up through my leg to my hip. It has gotten bad again and I have new symptoms along with the pain in my leg. I have been very dizzy with a headache for about a week now. I am just so afraid to get in the car and drive. I was wondering if any of you have had this issue? I have an appointment with my PM Dr. on Fri. but I have to get me there. Any replies will be so appreciated.
