Hello Everyone,

Is anyone familiary with the term RSD, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy? My friend has it since 1994 when he fell off a escalator and pushed his hands out to try to break his fall. Basically he is 24/7 chronic pain and has a broken arm for life. He's been through countless surgery's and back surgery's. It when the nervous system is damage and there is absolutely no cure for it. So basically he's in pain for the rest of his life .

Doctors have been perscribing him fentanly patches, 180MG oxycodone (or something close) 4times a day or as needed, morphine, ,25MG xanax, Ambien, and a bunch of other stuff.

In 2003 he decided to stop taking EVERYTHING cold turkey , no subs, or anything. He went through straight HELL I have no idea how he did it. Now adays he just take an Aleve, a Tylenol, or an Aspirin a few times a day (2 or 3 times a day, not each) and he claims to be fine though I can tell he's still in pain a lot once in a while, maybe 2-3 times a month.

Remember, im writing this in lamest terms to keep it short and understandable. Im not an expert on it im just sharing his experience and trying to be as accurate as I can.

Anyone else have experience with this? I think its a horrible dissability and we need a cure ASAP. If you know of any causes or charity groups let me know I would love to help people battling this horrific disability.

YOU JUST TOLD MY STORY WITH A SPINAL AND SHOULDER INJURY THROWN IN. I HAVE RSD/CRPS. I have information on it. I have to try to sleep right now but tomorrow I will post what I've learned about RSD

So sorry to hear about anybody having this condition. His story is similar to mine in many details. It's a terrible disorder to have. Will post about RSD tomorrow.

GOOD NIGHT ALL! I THINK I MIGHT BE ABLE TO SLEEP TONIGHT (SINCE I DIDN'T LAST NIGHT).

  1. iamgroot @ iamgroot: Some customers were scammed by someone using a nearly identical email address. So I’m planning to change my email to one that uses my official website domain, so it can’t be easily copied and everyone can stay safe from scammers. Here is our new official email address from now on. support@mediattics.com
  2. fyjclol @ fyjclol: Also wondering what happened to the guy with the btc predictions. And +1 for fooseball
  3. L @ LW815: 90% of the time when I see it, it’s being used for exactly what it’s not supposed to be used for(with the exception of you and Layne talking fooseball)
  4. L @ LW815: I’d say it’s fair enough game to discuss whatever you wanna discuss(within the rules ofc) and if people don’t like it oh well. It’s not like the shoutbox is constantly popping off with other discussion lol
  5. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Well sorry if I bother anyone with my sports talk :) much love to all. Happy holidays.
  6. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Shout box is for sports, hey, Happy Thanksgiving. It’s not for those other things people like to bring up. Please use or start a thread in the appropriate place.
  7. L @ LW815: Better to push other worse discussions out of sight IMO and see random sport shit, but also kinda makes it hard to have that content removed if need be. I don’t know how to view the entire shoutbox recent history but I know it’s possible lol so it’s both a good and bad thing tbh
  8. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: exactly
  9. L @ LW815: I agree @Ketmaster but their lengthy sport discussions usually tend to happen at convenient times, like when somebody is talking about or asking things that the shoutbox also isn’t meant for(that are worse than random sport talks)
  10. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: I appreciate the good vibes but I agree sports stuff should like be in a thread or PM or something, not a sports guy so it is kinda like wtf is happening people are messaging each other in a shoutbox
  11. T @ timyboy: Where is the guy with the BTC predictions?
  12. F @ Floaty: like them using the shout box tbh, its appreciated good vibes. Not sure if the box has another purpose seems like its the correct use though
  13. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I'll start a thread for us in the Sports section later this morning.
  14. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I hated Canales' playcalling. Run the ball. That's what 9ers did since they knew it'd be that type of game. But at the same time, the panthers have a young core, and that was their biggest game in years lol. I understand MNF throwing off the passing game sync and shit just from being hyped up.
  15. L @ luquitoad: Yall should start a sports thread and keep it out of the shoutbox..... just a suggestion .
  16. L @ Layne_Cobain: I don’t think we’ll be in prime time again anytime soon 😂
  17. L @ Layne_Cobain: What a horrific game @tiquanunderwood seeiously embarrassing. Defense did their job Bryce the offense and Canales play calling has been atrocious
  18. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain legoooo panthers babbyyyyy
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Congrats!!! @tiquanunderwood 5 in a row to climb back into it is amazing… and @MCAJB6122 I agree 💯did not see that coming. Can’t recall the last time there was this much parity across the league it’s insane
  20. M @ MCAJB6122: Chicago at 8-3 has to be the surprise of the season so far
