Had a huge weekend along with a flare that had been going on for a couple of weeks and now all that physical stress has left me with flu like symptoms and with pus on my tonsils. Can’t win can I?! My throat and tonsils made me aware of their existance nearly 4 [...]

Hi readers,
I seem to be in a constant flare and I hate how it affects everything!
I am growing more depressed the longer it goes on, and not the healthy blubbering crying mess type of depression but the numb withdrawn empty type. Which I find more disturbing.
My sleep is erratic, I am constantly waking from pain [...]

Hi there,
Well I had a dental appointment to have that tooth checked out, and guess what nothing is wrong with it. But I was really pissed with the dentist and his ignorance!
I said to him there is a slight possibility that the pain may be just my neurological condition. He replies with a smirk on [...]

Hi there,
Someone once said to me their father used to say “if you can feel pain then it means you are alive”. I like that saying although pain can be torturous and horrible the bright side is I am alive. At times I often think it is not a bright side, but I can appreciate [...]

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome/ Reflex Sympathetic Dystropy Awareness Month

Hi there readers,
November is traditionally recognised in the United States as CRPS/RSD awareness month. This should be made international.
The symbol is the orange ribbon which represents the most common pain associated with CRPS the burning pain. Obviously red would be good but that is taken by the disease AIDS. So they settled for orange. Besides [...]

Hi there readers,
My GP had a quick look at my leg and to my surprise told me to call him in two weeks if it hasn’t improved or gets worse. Then he will do me a referral to a local general surgeon to see if it is something that needs to be attacked by a [...]
