Guess what?!!!!!!!!!!

I am finally going to get nerve blocks!! (after being dx with RSD since 11/06 and not having any). We are starting with my legs, since they are the worst.

I hope and pray they will work... at least short term!

More later- not doing real well, and keep passing out from the pain.

Big hugs (the non-hurty kind). You are good and you are brave to try something new to fight for your legs. It is so hard to know what to choose when the choices are so not-great. When will you get your first blocks, do you have an appointment yet? and for the pasting out ... everything other cause has now been ruled out, right? (Vitamin B-12, blood pressure, etc etc). Pain does such awful sneaky things to our brains and bodies...

InHisHands, good luck! I hope the blocks do the trick.

Hippyhair and Mollymcn are right on target... talk to your Dr., ask about an EEG. I had never had a seizure in my life till late in my rsd progression. The neurologist says there is a very good chance that the rsd is causing the epilepsy. I have several types of seizures, not all of which are the full-blown type. Are you already on an anti-convulsant for the rsd? That might be keeping the worst of it at bay, making it harder to diagnose. You might want to read the epilepsy forum here at NeuroTalk, I have found much helpful data there.
