rsdangiogram&angioplasty hi lisa, so happy to hear that your family is doing fine. would like to know how you are doing??i haven't forgotten you i have been soooo busy going to drs.and i am still having my blocks ,i think i have had at least 50 plus by now ,i lost count when i was at 40 .so much has been going on with me i can't keep up with myself i picked the kettle up not thinkung with my bad arm and dropped it and burned my right leg but it has healed now then i had to have tests done on my right leg becauase i have pad inthe lower extremities,for which i had a bypass surgery .well the tests came back and my right leg is sooooo blocked again they can't even see the plastic tubing from the first bypas and there is another blockage inthe same area in the main arterey . so i am schedualed for sept 26 to have angio&angioplasty done at the same time . my dr will be giving me a block just before the procedure ,hoping to prevent further spreading o f rsd about a month ago i was told that rsd had spread to my back also had my eyes checked and i have drye eye syndrome for which i use drops three times daily ,they have been helping with the burning and itching,also i have dry mouth so bad ,and that is constant day& night . one more thing to add to my rsd hell is that i have been having hearing problems in my right ear so i will be going to have my ear checked too, is there ever going to be a light at the end of this rsd tunnel??? most days now i do not even want to get out of my recliner for which i am still having to sleep in .after the sept 26 i go back to the surgeon to set a date for a double bypass the list never seems to end and i feel like i am at the end of my rope ,just can't take anymoreiam very scared ,depressed ,and totally frustrated whith this whole rsd hell i sincerely hope that you are doing much better than i am and i will be praying for you sandy
