Default Hello, Everyone
Hi, I was diagnosed with RSD 5 yrs ago this coming May. I have had ton of blocks, and take quite a few meds. I was blessed to be able to participate in a study at NIH shortly after my diagnosis. They were testing Neurotropin and if were not for that I would still be in a scooter and my toes would still be stuck up in the air. Unfortunately, I can not find a doctor who is willing to do the paperwork for the IND number so I can continue to take it. I guess it is a liability issue. I am going for another block on Mon and then on Weds I am having a biopsy on my breast. But life is good. I have been married for 25 yrs to the most wonderful, loving, patient and funny man. We have a 15 yr old son. We moved to the foothills in Northern California 2 yrs ago after farming for 5 yrs. Had to quit do to my condition. We had 10 acres of cherries, 23 Nubian goats, 3 sheep and a few calves that we raised for the freezer. Oops, almost forgot about the chickens and the ducks and the pigs I raised. There are times I really miss all of it. We have 2 pygmy goats and 7 chickens, 3 dogs, a rabbit and a parakeet. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you and helping where I can.
