I'm a 39 year old man and I have suffered from CRPS type II for 8 years now and currently I'm sporting the older model intrathecal pain pump implant from November 2004 that has just been topped off with Dilaudid. I have been looking for a forum like this off and on for many years and I think I will be glad I found it from what I have been reading in here. Some of my story (what would fit) is posted on my "About Me" page if you like boring stories feel free to check it out, lol.
I'm trying hard to keep my chin up but it seems to be getting tougher everyday and that is why I came to this forum. I want to meet people that suffer from my same affliction, help whomever I can and hopefully learn something new along the way. Thanks for letting me be apart of the community.

Hi Gojo,

Welcome to NT! You are definitely in the right place.

Here you will find people who have the same condition as yourself and are ready to share their knowledge and experience. You will also find folks who, while not dealing with your specific health issue, know firsthand the emotional and financial travails of dealing with a major illness.

We’re all here to listen and support you any way we can.

Cheers

Welcome Trucker,

I hitchhiked with a SuperService trucker once. It was coooool !!!!!!!!!!!
Had a flat tire. Nice driver.

My hats go off to ya all. In eastern KY, if it don't get trucked in, we don't get any.

You do have a lot of problems to deal with. Ummmm. And it's been a while too. It's very hard to deal with 24/7 pain, not liking your options, and not getting what you need or want. I feel for you, buddy. I hope you find relief soon.

Keep us posted...
