You're welcome @paulieoneill4979 you deserve kind words.
Hahaha - You found a positive and have enjoyed being a passenger on your trip to the city! Not a bad gig sometimes, huh?

Thank you for sharing that your 6 year old daughter has been your cheerleader and source of inspiration. That is special and I'm sure you very much appreciate her. My kids have done that for me since they were teens and have been my main source of inspiration. I always want to make them proud. On the flip side, I also was my mom's cheerleader when I was 8 after she had a motorcycle accident. Some of what you describe about your injuries take me back to my Mom. Both of her legs were broken and she had severe ankle crushing. She's been through it and is the strongest person I know. Having had that experience, I feel for you and your journey, and see that you are working hard through OT and PT and continuing to persevere on your path forward through rehabilitation and tackling CRPS.

Wow, NYU, great! It sounds like you'll be in good hands at NYU pain management for your radio frequency ablation. Have you already been there for diagnostic nerve block testing?

Thanks for the encouragement sounds like your mom's journey and everything you have been through have made you a great person so they decided not to do the nerve block testing due to the mri results and the emg ncv they know that the damaged nerve is in my neck and feel that the abalation is the route to go im also scheduled for an epidural in the neck as well so I pray they both help as they explained it to me nothing is guarenteed and that crps is such a serious condition that it really is going to be a trial by fire battle im hopeful and feel confident I have the best team in place to help me fight this I also have to go for another emg ncv for the leg because the same burning and throbbing stabbing pain is happening now there as well as my foot turning colors its such a mental battle very confusing
