i wish you all the best - do not give up! there are new treatments and research happening. It is hard to stay positive, and sometimes we have to let the grief and worry wash over us, so it doesn't get buried and fester.

On Thanks giving day, I am making a promise to myself to take it easy - not to fret - and to enjoy any small (or big) moments of joy. i wish you MANY moments of joy and love. And that your PM is familiar with CRPS and/or can become familiar enough to provide you with good support, which is what you need.

Please continue your research - the best patient for this condition is the most informed patient. web sites I have found most helpful are: national institute for health (NIH), rsdhope.org, rsdfoundation.org, about rsd.com, wikipedia (yes, really), rsdrx.com.

Please keep us posted - I am available for PM at any time.

Aloha,
Jenny
