Hi, I'm new to the group and wanted to say hi. I just passed my second
anniversary on May 20 suffering with RSD/CRPS. I have tried so many
different types of meds which has created a roller coaster of
emotions, depression, etc. That has really put a strain on our
marriage. My husband understands to a degree and he knows there is a
lot of pain but unless you have actually suffered this type of pain,
it's hard to truly know what it's like to live with.He is supportive
in some ways, but was not in others. It nearly cost him our marriage.
Your husband really needs to get information from someone on your
"care team". If he is computer inclined, there are several sites that
he could read some info on RSD and medication if he hasn't already.
Sorry you have this added stress, it certainly doesn't help. Hope
things start to look up!
