RSD and pain

Well the RSD is really raging lately. I sure hope the brain creates a bunch of pain receptors, and then makes a bunch of endorphins to fill those receptors.

It is like sticking your leg into a woodstove, but never really consumes your leg, just burns on and on. With this deep aching like your bones are broken. My ankle wont hardly bend, and my foot cramps sooooo bad it hurts to stand on it, and has that clenching feeling in it.

I can hardly even use the leg, it just wants to hang from my hip, and the hip, oh the hip! Man it feels like someone took a baseball bat to me. I cant hardly sit, and laying on that side is out of the question.

Sorry about the whine, maybe I should go get some cheese and crackers to go with it. =D

Maybe I should see if I can get some lidocain patches.

Are they addictive???

Anyways, been trying to forget the pain by intense internet surfing. Found a couple of interesting sites. Those with a little cash to invest might like these sites.

You can purchase property pretty cheap! Anywhere in the country including canada. I saw a infomercial on this, and decided I didnt need to purchase this guys stuff. I could find the info if I was patient.

Thinkin about hitting the bath, dont really like baths, but maybe it will ease the ache in the hip.

I don't think that Lidocain patches are addictive they are over the counter sales.  They kinda numb the area that is hurting... knowing your story somewhat.. I'm not so sure what they will do... worth a try...even if it only provides you with some temporary relief.

I best be getting my butt out the door.  It's so freaking cold here... car is warming up... actually I've had it running for about 15 minutes LOL...

I HATE this weather... every joint I have is screaming at the moment.   Actually I can't say it was much better when I was using the Vicodin.. everything still hurt then too...

Have a good day dear...hope you can find some relief someplace, somehow
