Guest guest Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Sandy ~ Good, I am glad you will ask her for the tests I suggested. What is your blood pressure and pulse running? It is very stressful for your heart to have all that pain. If its high from the pain, you need the meds ! ! ! Do I need to come and bring a can of whup ass? I have lots of pain, and the more the pain, the more my heart acts up. This is not good for your heart ! ! There is no telling what is in your knees. It could be bursitis, or osteo-arthritis, or neuropathy, or even alittle of it all ! ! I know this sounds horrible, but I would almost think draining your knees and doing a culture on them would be very wise. I know they would have to knock you out to do this, or strap you to a papoose board and hold you down, but this needs to have a remady for you. The fact you have so much swelling in your trunk and legs and knees is a sign your body is putting water there for protection. You need some type of relief for this, it is no way to live. I think perhaps you should talk to her about RSD/CRPS. ( reflex sympathetic dystrophy /Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) Like Lynda has. It causes hypersensitive pain and severe pain to touch. This would make sense.........with your knee pain. RSDSA :: stories , http://rsds.org/1/publications/review_archive/kathleen_campbell.htm read this site. Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), also known as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, is a chronic neurological syndrome characterized by: severe burning pain pathological changes in bone and skin excessive sweating tissue swelling extreme sensitivity to touch Love you~ and God Bless !
