as i sit in my room, i hear my husband outside playing bags with the neighbor. laughing. having fun... i could just vomit.
i'm sitting here in my bedroom crying because i am scared of the unknown and scared of what i am learning. i am in pain and i am so weary of it all. i thought it quite odd that the pain dr. immediately prescribed all these meds - hydrocodone, gabapentin, amitriptyline and methadone. then i read what RSD really does to your body. and i read that i'm not crazy or imagining things.
of course, nobody i know has ever heard of RSD and just shrugs it off with a simple, "oh, i'm sorry..."
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it feels good to be validated with all of this information. it really does. but it doesn't make my arm stop hurting. and it doesn't stop people from being insensitive. i'm just thankful that i'm not imagining an illness.
