Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 Hi Janet, About that bone crushing pain in the Butt. Don't know if it will help you or not, but when I get that type of pain I use a heating pad. It really helps calm it down a bit. Also you might try soaking in Epsom Salts Bath too. Hope this helps. Take care and have a good night. Hugs, babs ____________________________________________________ IncrediMail - Email has finally evolved - Click Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2004 Report Share Posted February 16, 2004 Janet I also use heating pads for the Fibro knots, and all types of pain I get. Use the pads you can get from Wal Mart that have menthol or some other meds on them and they help pain also. Take care Janet and hope your pain eases up some. Write me at home when have chance. Your in my prayers s Momma JoAnn Janet Hi Janet, About that bone crushing pain in the Butt. Don't know if it will help you or not, but when I get that type of pain I use a heating pad.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Now they have found a white matter on my brain and I wonder what this is from, the RSD or what? At first they thought I had MS and was diagnosed Negative for this. Janet, I went thru the same thing, 3 MRI's of brain and a spinal tap to rule out MS. The spinal was negative and we were told that the white matter/lesions, etc., showing on the brain MRI is due to RSD. I will see if I can find the info I had saved on old computer about it and forward it to you. I also never suffered from migranes until after the last cervical epidural, they are finally under control with medication. We were told the migranes are also related to the RSD. Hope this is some help to you. Hoping for Pain Free Days,Sandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Sandi: Hi! Thanks for writing me back on the white matter lesions, I almost freaked when I seen that you had the same thing happen to you! Workman's Comp had said all along that they thought I had MS, and they fought me to the end. I had diabetes ruled out, because I had a nerve injury. That was unexplainable, in other words I had pinched the femoral cutaneous nerve in the my left leg. I was at the time of the injury smaller than what I am now, weight wise. My doctors told me that I had pinched a nerve in my left leg in the groin area, How can this be done at a plant? Well It did, I worked a 12 hour shift, I had a part get caught in between two racks, I pulled on it. No problem, later on through the night, I had was working on a sit-down position and I was leaning on my left side in a weird position waiting for parts to come down to me. I had leaned up and under to fix the underneath of a bumper. They think this is how this happen, also that I had done the same job for 3 1/2 years. Of course, this was the first for this to happen to me, with the underneath thing. But I had a job where I did the same thing everyday. Anyway, when I had a car accident while my case was going on, I had two deer hit me and total my car. I had a MRI done and this is when the white matter showed up on my Brain! Well Workman's Comp loves this, they had something else to blame this on. They actually won because I wasn't able to prove my injury! They made sure my witnesses didn't show up for court. They were told they would lose their job, if they did. Now I have to pay for all of this for the rest of my life, and I had never ever worked in plant in my life! I was in clerical work in the past. Sorry for venting, I am so damn mad!!!!! I just try not to let the family know how upset I am. I think it's getting to them too! They also blamed this on me having varicose veins, and I was negative for this from the start. I got screwed!!!!!! Big time, now I have to file for Bankruptcy. My lawyer didn't help me at all, after 7 years, I should sue him for all of this. I also lost 1 year from my SSDI and had to start all over again with my lawyer, to get my SSDI. I lost one year of salary because of this screw up. I hired another attorney to get my SSDI and thank god I did, or I would have nothing to live on except child support. and that is not much! Sorry for venting again, I can't seem to stop once I get started on this case of mine.
