Fortunately the Neurologist I was referred to (after first seeing GPs, ER dr.s, pain specialist, endocronologist, rhuematologist, internal med. specialists) had done his studying directly under Dr. Robert Schwartzman (considered "Father of RSD Research"). Most people who have even heard of RSD think it happens only in the extremities (hands, feet), few realize it can occur in the spine too. Keep Smiling, Girl!

I am in great health except for my "benign brain tumor" I'll never forget talking to a gal on the phone a few years ago she worked for Bonfils Blood where I use to donate all the time until I found out I had all these strange health probs so I thought I had better hold on to my blood, anyway she was concerned about me and she ended up telling me her story--and I thought how awful and I had never heard of such a thing!

My niece damaged a nerve in her back and arm, due to an accident several years ago. The pain and symptoms she describes are similar to what you have shared here, so I will definitely be forwarding your story to her. <br /><br />Secondly, NOW I know how you are able to accomplish all the amazing things you do! So glad you have scrapbooking and crafting to help you deal with all this - especially since you've been so willing to share it all with US! Your willingness to trust the Lord in all this is truly inspirational and it is obvious He is blessing your faithfulness with creativity, a loving and supportive family and group of friends.

In addition, to help educate, the public, about this horrible, and painful disease. About 3 months ago a friend’s 10yr little old girl was diagnose with this. To say we have had a struggle finding doctors who know and understand this disease is an understatement. And no one not even the school takes her pain serious. They have even made the poor girl stand through an entire gym class. Her is in her ankle and foot and it turns blue/black regularly. She tries to tell the adults how bad it hurts her and they make fun of her by mocking or belittling her. The family turned to me to help them find answers for a disease they had never heard of. I spent days and days researching everything I could find for them and then breaking it down to normal language so they could understand just how bad it is for her and I even found a few clinical studies that hopeful we can get her into. Because she is so young, they do not want to do most treatments and they limit the amount of pain meds so she hardly gets any relief. After all the research, I was more than shocked that this disease can affect so many and yet not be well known. That will hopefully change thanks to people like you who are doing all you can to get the word out there about this disease so people can learn more about it and hopefully soon they will have even more treatments for this painful disease. Again thank you so much for doing this hop Debiloverslanelodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15261670446372334461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3939974678513062074.post-41446126528756985702011-05-21T08:09:06.187-05:002011-05-21T08:09:06.187-05:00Christie, thank you for bringing awareness to this...Christie, thank you for bringing awareness to this. I've not heard of it before, but I remember when my DH was having severe foot pains after coming back from Iraq and the doctors couldn't figure it out--we kept it in prayer and after a year the pain started to disipitate. But it wasn't anything like what you go through. I think learning about these things helps us to better understand what others go through, if only a smidge. I have a friend with a similar problem as yours and I wonder if she has the same issue?? I'll be sure to send her a link to your blog so she can talk to her doctor about it. Appreciate you opening up this very personal subject.
