Hi Kelly,
Thanks for the information! I wish I felt like advocating for all of us more. I got some oxygen and need to do some dives. My original injury site, the right shoulder surgery is really acting up. It is also frozen and is so difficult to use right now. I am thankful for those that can and will advocate for us! Thanks again. I know you have full body RSD as well, so I hope you are getting along in these cold months. Thanks again! Hard to type now, I'll respond to your pm soon. Love Di

Hello Di
oh no don't be sorry, about that never!
take care of your self,

I can only do so much from my bed also, but we are lucky we have computers that help us, I am going to use every bit of this I can, to do my part also,
I have not a thing to lose, and do not care if I make a lot of noise and what they think of me, haaaaaaaaaa
Jannie was the 1st lady I went to about having RSD, she has been a great help
she is also with the American Pain Foundation , and thinks we all should join,
I am with them also, smiles lots of good info,

hay thank you mominpain,
I will sure keep you posted as soon as I hear that its going to run I am going to post it on here, smiles

Peace

Hi

Thanks for sharing that info with us.

I checked out the link - it appears that Jannie has been successful on a state level only, so that the new pain law is effective in Michigan.

I am a member of RSDSA (in Milford, CT, the director is Jim Broatch) but not the National Pain Foundation. I will have to check it out!

Diana, I am so sorry that you are having a tough time right now, I hope the dives help you. Did you say you have tried Lidocaine and/or Ketamine yet? I know you have had RSD for over 20 years. I am getting my first Lidocaine infusion in a few weeks, the blocks were becoming less with each successive one. They only do it for an an hour at a time, the subcutaneous actually sounds better....but I have to go with what it offered by my PM for now. Have you ever made an appt with Dr. S at Drexel in Philly?

Take care, Sandy

Hello Sandy,

yep that is him ,,, thank you smiles

Thanks Sandy!
Ketamine was suggested to me but I declined. I really don't understand the lidocaine blocks. I had three series of stelate ganglion blocks early in treatment. They did 10 over ten days. I did this three times. Can you explain the difference ? Will you let me know how this works for you ? The HBOT works great, but takes three hours out of a day and there are side effects. I really need to do 40 dives and then maintain with maintence dives. But after 20 dives I usually stop.
Thanks for caring, sometimes this is a really tough row to hoe! I hope you are doing well. Thanks again! Di

Hello Di

I am sorry to hear you are not doing well,
What is that you are talking about? what is a dives? and what are the side effects?

hugs
Kelly
