Very quick post, update from my dr and also on me

[Guest guest]

*Hi all,*

*I wasnt going to post and just lay down but i wanted to write really quick.

*

*i hope nobody thinks that im ignoring anyone in group or upset i havent

been getting to messages lately. i got a email from a good friend who

brought some things to attention and i just wanted to let everyone know what

i been dealin with the past few wks...*

*dennis ended up getting a really bad case of poison sumac while doing yard

work...ended up at drs and work got upset with him but wouldnt let him stay

at work. i have a pic online of his arm but scared to send it as its grossed

out a few family members he showed. But he had a really bad allergic

reaction and ive been trying to stay away from him cause god forbid i get

that on my rsd limb no way!!! BUT he is doing better now thank god.*

**

*As i posted befoer too that i finally got a pool- one of those 18ft BIG

easy set ones you get at walmart. i wanted to do this since i got hurt n

dreamed of a pool a it helps my knee and rsd. aquatic therapy got me

walking again so i am blessed with this pool. it was a hassell and since we

are on well water we couldnt get it filled al way n had a problm cause

dennis was putting up himself. anyways i had to call a water delivery to

fill it....its been a pain in butt geting this thing situated but yesterday

was able to get in as the water was 80...and i think i got overdone between

the pool and the 95 degree day. so this morning when i wrote my friend i

was soooo sick , throwing up and burnt. im startin to feel a lil better

but not much....needless to say i will not be in pool today lol. i may lay

down after dennis leaves this afternoon to talk to work- its so hot and

humid *

**

*Ok and lastly real quick...i went to my rsd dr yesterday and dint get the

best news. he could tell i was having issues with my pain and said i didnt

look good....found out a nerve block WAS scheduled for me however the dr

decided that its no longer worth the risk of doing blocks anymore since i

dont get a lot of relief n it doesnt cut pain levels later on........they

want me to call within a week or so cause they want me to do a

SYMPATHECTOMY at univ of va....*

*ive heard not so good things about this...to me this is a HUGE risk*

**

**

*so i am sorry part of me being offline is the every day ''life'' and

troubles but ive also been absent cause im starting to get back into a rut.

tryin to keep up on all meds including cymbalta cause i feel a huge

depression on me and i shouldnt feel like this cause i was finally blessed

with ssd, medicare and my back pay to help me.*

*i luv u all, the group means so much to me, please dont give up on me*
