Golly, that must be terrible for you. My symptoms are much milder, but similar enough to mention to you.

I am in final stages of being diagnosed with RSD or Charcot. I take Neurontin and Percocet 10/325. I;m not quite nauseated all day but am not hungry. The thought of food does unpleasant things to my stomach.

For the last week, I have been running low fevers in late evening. Awful shivers and the temp runs from 100.6 to 99.0 or so. Between the pain and the temps and the uncomfortable stomach, it has been very difficult to get through the day.

I am seeing the doctor who prescribed both meds on Wednesday. In our state, you have to show up in person at the doctors office, sign a promise not to use drugs, alcohol, etc. Then take a drug test.

Do you think I should ask for more or different meds? I know you're not docs, but I'll bet I'm not the only one going through this.

The days are so long and so painful to get through. It hurts a lot when the medicals disregard the fact that a day is a year. To them, it's just another day at the office.

Well, enough complaining and rambling from me. I would give a lot to have one day without pain. What a gift!
