My husband suffered from chronic pain in his low back and left leg for several years and like so many others, saw countless doctors and underwent countless test before a chiropractor finally told him she thought he was suffering from RSD. We have tried everything we heard of to give him some relief. We did find a diet that helped immensely but we found it difficult to adhere to. Over the past 15 years we have managed to deal with this terrible monster . Until today. He was told that what he thought was just his carpel tunnel acting up was also his CRPS spreading.

I want to support him but I am feeling so overwhelmed myself. I thought I was over the anger and resentment. Reading other posts I feel so guilty about my selfish feelings …he is the one dealing with this awful pain yet I don’t know if I can continue this fight. I can’t even believe that I have put it in words. I just need to vent. Please forgive me and thanks for listening.
