Yes I am under the care of a pain mgt specialist. I am currently on a combination of medications--both narcotic and non-narcotic to help control my pain. Even at the high doses I am on they do not control my pain very well. I have tried every other treatment available for RSD/CRPS that insurance would cover or that I could afford. (Nerve blocks, physical therapy, massage therapy, stellate ganglion blocks, IV ketamine infusions, high dose steroid therapy, a spinal cord stimulator, etc.) Other than meds there are no other treatments available at this time. There is research being done so hopefully there will be new therapies on the horizon. Cricket |

Hi Cricket, I know your pain. It has been since August of 2010 since my husband and I were intimate until Valentine's Day. Did I enjoy it? No. Did my husband? Absolutely not. Did I "pay for it afterwards"? Yes.
It is such a horrible thing - we have been married for almost 13 years, we have been together (on and off/friends with benefits type situations) for about 20 years. We have always had an active sex life (even after marriage) until 2007 (the accident). I feel awful because I know he misses the intimacy as well as I do. We can't even "snuggle" at night because of the pillows surrounding my body and the wincing I do even in my sleep. Let me know if you manage to find a way to safely please your husband. |
