Hey Allen...

Keep at it and keep poking those drs till they sort the bp and the pain out it's great they took you seriously... (FINALLY!!)

I once made the mistake of going to the ER in my NHS chair (after getting RSD and already being unable to walk) after being dropped and breaking my ankle... The nurse took my full history and then said "WHERE DID YOU STEAL THE WHEELCHAIR FROM??"
me> I'm in one full time because of RSD.
nurse> BUT YOU'RE YOUNG! YOUNG PEOPLE AREN'T IN WHEELCHAIRS! OF COURSE YOU CAN WALK!!
me> err, look at my feet.

That ended that. (Also helped having mum waving my med prescriptions around + me crying/ screaming and all of that lot).

Keeping my fingers crossed that things get sorted soon for you! can't believe you were suffering so much in silence! Has the elavil helped? and did I hear you correctly? they have PM clinics staffed by PA's?

Love ya and take CARE!!
