Also, could you talk to your doc about giving you something pre-surgery to relax your body and mind. Like I do the 'laughing gas' before any dental procedure. My dentist also gives me antibiotics prior to any dental procedure. Maybe you are already on antibiotics with nail infection issues. Hope the best for you. Let us know how you are doing and when you are scheduled. will be thinking of you- loretta I've had rsd like yourself since 96-both legs, arms, full body

Hi, thanks, do you know what level the vitamin c needs to be? I'm on 500mg a day at the moment, consultant is hoping it will prevent a little of the spread in my right side. The podiatrist is just waiting for confirmation to proceed & she's going to do it..... ugg
Yes I frequently on antibiotics, both due to the toes & I keep getting leg ulcers. In March I moving into a purpose built bungalow, I got accepted onto a scheme they're running, so I'd like it over & done with by then so I can enjoy the new place
