Does anyone have burning and tearing in their eyes? This doesn't happen everyday-just on occasion. happens out of the blue Thanks, loretta

Loretta - I know there is a lady on facebook ketamine club that has RSD in her eyes now. I do not know her eye symptoms. She uses Restasis.

My eyes tear when my symptoms are flaring or just before a flare.

Thanks- I know I am definetly in a flare right. I've got to do something. I've trying to wait till May when my medicare starts-65. Besides full body crps, starting in 96 then moving full body and internal in about 2002. I have TN. positive ana, ice cold hands and feet. Dr. wants me to be tested for Lupus. Thanks for listening. loretta

Loretta - what is TN? Can Lupus result from CRPS?
SS

Hi Sallysue, TN is trigeminal neurlagia-a painful condition. At the temple of your head-3 nerves come together. I just have it on my left side. There is a forum just for TN on this site.
I don't think lupus can 'result' from crps, it's just another autoimmune disorder. like crps, it can affect your kidneys, I'm waiting for my second urine test--found blood in urine in first test. loretta

As Loretta says, CRPS cannot cause Lupus. The various types of lupus are auto immune disorders. It is not proven that CRPS is an auto-immune condition. That is one hypothesis in a whole series of possible ideas about how it is caused. It may turn out that what we call CRPS today is, in fact, more than one different condition, each of which may have different underlying mechanisms causing them.

I hope you have some answers soon. Don't forget that blood in your urine could be caused by very many different things, even things as simple as kidney or bladder infections or stones. These can be exceptionally painful and horribly unpleasant, even making you feel quite generally unwell but can be relatively easy to treat so don't panic yet. Lets hope it turns out to be something fairly harmless and you can get rid of it quickly. Waiting till May is a long time though, especially if you are feeling rotten. I hope you are able to get some answers long before then.

Neurochic, thanks for the encouragement. I will not wait till May if I have another night like last night. burning up, chills, shaking, ice cold hands and feet. In fact will call my Dr. tomorrow -should have results to test. loretta

That sounds very unpleasant and I wouldn't delay if i were you. Hopefully, it will turn out to be something like an infection that can be cleared up with antibiotics - bladder and kidney infections can cause those flu like symptoms and can be extremely painful. Fingers crossed you get an answer soon and its nothing too nasty.

Thinking good thoughts for you Loretta.
