Hello {{{{{{{{ ELIZABETH }}}}}}}}}} Welcome,,,, I am truly sorry I have not gotten back too you sooner.. I have the beast we hate soo dearly,, I am afraid what the drs. Are going too tell me Monday,, when I go back.. I have been having to go to dr. office n Er for last two months for shots each day. Of antibotics n pain shots both... I had some kind of flare,, about 6 weeks after my surgery ,,,,, that gotten infected,,, they were scared,,, with good reason,,,,,,, that the infection would go into the cut where they had went in.. Sure did not want to have to start over... No way,,, surgery for morphine pump... Drs. have not said,, yet that is flare,,, Sure looks like it tho... My flares goes into open wounds.. With this ,,, I was running low grade fevers.... That one was first for me.... but worst part is that is on my tummy!!!!!!!!!!! It may have started spreading again,,,, I am not anxious for the blocks again.. Tho I have had this beast now for 6 yrs.. I am blessed since I do not have feelings below the belly button,,, SO that is good.. But Still,,,, I do know when flares are coming,, if I pay attention,,, SURE glad U have found a dr. who knows what is going on,, n willing too treat u rite. That is soo important for this.. Sooner that treatment is started,, better rsd respondes....Sooner we get relief.. Pain seems too get out of control,,, it sure is hard too get back under control.. The pump seems to be working for me.. That is finally a biggg relief for me.... I am seeming to be responding too other meds now finally also... you certainly are blessed that the dr. seems too know what he is doing ,,, n found one sooo quickly,,, some of us has been thru dr. office after office,,, That is hardest for us too deal with....... We sure need understanding with all of the changes that we have to go thru in life styles,, n family situations.. most of time,,, we have went too long too try too alternative meds,, tho some of the natural ways,, can still work for us,, I do some of the naturals for the side affects of medicines that has upon us... I certainly do hope they can work for you... WITH ALL OF MY HEART!!!!!! I still wonder what is worst,, pain n all the horrors of medicines or the side affects of... They certainlly are hard on our bodies.... With the fever I have had thru this,, It certainly left me feeling tired n hurting...
