Wouldn't it be great if just for a day you could give those doctors a "24 hrs of my life" experience? They would change their attitudes super fast...

Idiotic unsympathetic doctors are the bane of our lives. Maybe try printing off the CRPS info from a site like RSDhope.org or similar and taking it along to your next appointment, and ask them to read it as soon as they can. You can always hope that they might just be curious enough to read it!

Good luck with your move. Sounds like a hard but positive thing to move to a new area and hopefully get some better care. Sounds like the chances are you will

Glad your husband is a good 'un They are worth their weight in gold, bless their big old cotton socks. Lol.

Bram.

Yes he worth his and my weight combined in gold. I just wish I could be worthy of him. He tries his hardest to make this easier for me but then I turn around and bite the poor man's head off. I feel like a black widow spider at times. Look but don't touch or talk to me. Don't think you're getting dinner tonight unless it comes from a can lol. He can tell what kind of day it will be or has been by just 1 tiny look in my eyes. He asks so little of me that when he comes home from work and the house is a mess I want to get up and clean and all he does is go to it. I hate this. I didn't marry him to have him go to work to support us then turn around and work at the house. I should be able to clean my own house. I should be able to get around without tripping over my own darn feet and taking care of my babies. Hell the easiest ones to take care of are the cats. All I have to do is put out food and water. He cleans the litter boxes and they love us. That goofy girl Maggie needs more. Food water and letting out to go potty. Would I give any of them up to whole again? No I love them all. They are my emotional support, and they keep my head up. Even when I want to tring all of them up by their ankles to get a little peace and quiet lol. I just wish some people would think before opening their mouths. I know drs do get some people that do fake or are trying to get a quick high with pain meds. But when you have someone that the meds barely take the edge off the pain and they go away smiling because they can walk that extra step or play with their child be happy for them, those are the ones you want to keep com7ng. They arent playing the system for free drugs. I hadn't left the house in 2 wks until yesterday. That's because I don't want people to point at the pregnant lady on a cane. I don't want them trying to say oh she's faking she just wants attention. I WANT a normal life. I WANT to run with my son. I WANT to be able to go out with friends and sit for more than 20 min without hurting. If I could give this away to someone then I would gladly do it. But thats a no go cause im faking it.
