I am waiting to see my family doc, who is the one that does my meds - to clear it with her in case I need a short run of 24/7 pain meds -- then I think I am going to go for the botox my neuro recommended.

So --- even though I had a really rough time last time, I think it helped enough that it will be worth it.

I hope that you take my willingness to do this again as encouraging!

I am sure it will help you.

I didn't find the injections all that bad ---- maybe for a "normal" person but not for someone with RSD -- we are used to far worse. I can't imagine being put under to have it done. It wasn't that bad! For me the pain was a lot worse a week later.... but like I said, my Doc is the expert around here, and says I am the only one who has ever reacted this way.

I bet this is what gets you on the road to normal movement again!
