Hi houselite, and welcome to NeuroTalk! This is a great place to hang out, and there are lots of nice and caring people here. Take some time and have a look around.

I'm sorry for your pain. I hope you get answers soon.

Default Welcome
Hi i caught your post as i havent been here in a bit. I have crps/rsd in my left foot and ankle. I was diagnosed early which was a wonderful thing. I dont have it as bad as others and i dont say that in pride, im blessed. The earlier you get help, which includes depression or anxiety the better you are. Physical therapy was brutal for me, but i have to say its what put me on my feet. I also have a couple other issues as well. Everyone is different, i do not take meds, but my pain level is not high. I use a tens unit and choose my good and bad days. Sounds like your doctor is doing all the right things for you.

Blessings
Jolene

Default Thank You
Thank you all for the welcome. I noticed there are a couple of you from the chicago area. I am 45 minites west of chicago. Do any of you know any doctors or clinics in the chicago area that specilize in RSD? If you do can you please let me know.
Thank You again

Hello Houselite and Welcome to NT!!

I too have RSD.... diagnosed about 5 years ago... fighting to find a cure every day since.

I've never been to this hospital but I have heard that Rush University Medical Hospital has done research and clinical trials regarding RSD/CRPS.

You may want to contact them... here is a link with phone numbers:
http://www.rush.edu/patients/contact/index.html


Here is the link to our RSD/CRPS forum:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum21.html

Please join in and ask any questions you may have...someone will always be around to help you in any way that we can. Please, also, feel free to roam around and join in any where!! I look forward to seeing you around the boards!!

I truly wish you the best!!
Abbie
