Hi Cattys. Thanks for caring. Wish I could say I was all better but I am feeling awful. Last Friday I went to the mall and pulled something in my left butt area. I have been in agony ever since. I mean a 10 - emergency room pain. I can't stand up straight or lie down. I can only sit on a cushion. The pain/anest doc gave me some muscle relaxers late yesterday so I was finally able to sleep a little bit last night. I saw the physiatrist this am. He said that the nerve root ball is inflamed probably the sciatic nerve where my RSD originated in the first place. I am just praying that this goes away and doesn't turn into RSD. It's in the leg that appears to be in remission. My right foot that has the RSD did flare after those nerve tests but even that is not as painful as this is. My husband and I see the pain/anest doc next Wednesday to come up with a plan for the RSD. Hopefully, this other problem will be gone. I haven't been posting because it has just been too much effort to move around. I can sit but I still have to walk to the chair. I keep praying - that I don't mind having to deal with the RSD but do I have to deal with something else too????? How are you doing? How is your arm? I hope you are okay. Thank you for your hugs. They felt good. Take care.
