I know what you mean in everything you said! I too try not to give anyone advice because each situation is SO different. I always think ... wow, I'm the last person in the world who anyone should listen to. Ha Ha My niece used to ask me for advice about the guys she would be dating ... I told her I have no right to give her advice ... ha ha again. As I've mentioned before ... I can't keep track of what I'm writing and what response
I'm getting because I put so much into one message. I'm just hoping someone will read my messages somewhere down the line ... the way I've read some of the messages here on this website ... and get some little piece of information from it ... the most important thing for me has been that someone answered me! Don't always get a response at all on some of the websites. One good thing to report: I increased my dosage again to 400 mg a day ... not a high dosage ... but again I got a little bit of a result ... every time I have raised the dosage ... first 100/day and then 200/day and then 300/day and now 400/day I got a little tiny tiny bit of relief! But, going back to what we were talking about when it comes to giving anyone advice, that probably wouldn't be the case for anyone but me ... it is so ... well, complex ... hum, complex regional pain syndrome ... thank you again, I'm going to take everything that I've read on this website into consideration and back off for awhile ... don't want to over burden everyone with my minute to minute updates ... and I'm going to take whatever information I get from the doctors and try to learn from all of it ... all is good ... better than it has been for a long time in relation to my mouth pain and chewing ... my health otherwise is great ... so I consider myself very lucky there.
