I have what one dr. called severe fm and a back surgon said I had a bad, bad, bad, bad! case of fibor. I am 65 was in a car wreck at age 20 was not expected to live the first 48 hours, had many injuries. Fibromyalgia specialist said I had it since the car wreck, I am 65 now, I have had RSD/CRPS for years, started with broken toe and injury to foot. I have ruptured disc, pinched nerves, bursitis, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and many more things that causes chronic pain. I have a pain Dr. who kept me on the same med since 99. durogesic patch 75 and methadone 10, I guess it is helping some because I have had some real bad full body rsd flares the past few months, on fire full body and all the other pain that goes with it and all the other things I have going on. I wake on fire, wet towels and put over my legs, I hurt so bad I can t even cry. I had a spinal stimulator put in my back, caused the RSD to spread full body, for foot and leg. I don t know how to find a Dr. here in Cincinnati, Ohio, the dr. that put the spinal stimulator was a neurologist, didn t even warn me it could cause the RSD to spread, I knew it but thought I could get help with my back and legs, spasms and pain. I can t even use it anymore, never helped my back, hurt my hips and tailbone, have arthritis in it, bursitis in both hips both shoulders. I can t lay on the battery it hurts all the time along with my spine, stays on fire, behind the battery feels like someone is cutting me in a big area all time, and when I lay on it I wake in so much pain. I would like to know how I could find a good neurologist who knows RSD in this area? Thank you, Sara Hall

Exercise to strengthen hip with outside area pain

Hi, I just received on Tuesday of this week a steriod (acthar? I think it was methylprednisolone) shot in my hip for hip bursitis. Two days ago I noticed a bullseye red rash around the site that I was injected. Is this normal or should I be worried? I am 52 years old, female.

I started using estradot 50 today. Hormone replacement for menopause and osteoporosis. I also using other medications for high blood pressure, topisalic lotion for my psoriasis, omega 3, calcium and vet d. My concern is it safe to interact with all the medications iam taking. Also I was taking apo-gabapentin100mg and pms-sulfasalazine ec 500mg for my bursitis, a month ago. I stop taking this medication because it lowers my white blood corpuscles .it never help my bursitis any way. My sister was diagnosed with breast cancer 2 years ago, and undergoing treatment .l am also have varicose veins but it does not bother me at all, it is just very visible on my legs. How. Am I safe with the hormone therapy that I am taking right now.
