Riding in a car is excruciating, so the closer to Canton or Youngstown, the better. Went to "specialst" in Cleveland who after 5 trips , said "well if you can't lay down, I can't help you." Yea - he listened!

I am so sorry for your long ordeal..Much hospital food huh?? I highly recommend just as Ada for you to see a neurologist or a anestisologist.. someone well versed in our disease..in seek of what is happening with you..If it is RSD, which I have had for 3 + years, timing is important..As they can perform blocks and such to possibly relieve you from some of the pain and head for remission. RSD is not nice and we all here live with the battle and meaness of it everyday..So I want to wish you luck on your dx.. please act fast as it will be to your benefit, no matter what you may be suffering from...Please, keep us posted here and allow us to answer any questions you may have along the way...
