Hope I'm writing in the right space! I just looked at my first You Tube of Dr. Getson, and I'm laughing and weeping some at pure recognition. I've heard of CRPS, all the letters, figured I have some or all of it.
But he is indeed a rock star. He has done his work, and he's doing,, doing, doing his work! I plan on binging his videos and hopefully getting down to specifics.
My story next time, but it has led to chronic hyperalgesia which affects everything I do and feel. I'm 81 years of age, and I am an actor, an active woman working to my delight and with a main mission to not fall. But constant hyperalgesia means I'm fearful of my balance, always. And I depend on a walker due to severe spinal stenosis, the main culprit of it all. Non -painful, the spine. A good thing I suppose.
There's so much more. I'd like to get the hell off the pregabslin, which plays nasty games with my memory.
Enough for now. Thank you profoundly Kate, and as they say, I'll be back.

Hey Kate
Sorry about the drug side effects.
78 on gabapentine 7 years helps nerve pain and migraines.
I’m ok with it some fatigue.
Spinal stenosis: just had a hemilamenotomy 5 weeks ago. Walked 4 mile the 4th day and off pain killer 3rd day and on 6 day steroid pack. A piece of cake.
I had trouble walking sciatica and neurological claudation pain and falls.
Only use a neurosurgeon and only have the hemi lamenectomy or lamenotomy same thing , minimally invasive heal and recover quickly. Don’t use an orthopedic surgeon they require full lamenectomy ouch and fusion = rods and screws ouch ouch and 6-12 month recovery. Crazy.
Good luck Tony
