i was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder called complex regional pain syndrome to my right upper extremity. i have a pain management doctor that i must see at least once a month. i take very expensive medications to control the pain and other symptoms of this disease and i need to have a series of nerve blocks completed that are out of my financial ability. the nerve blocks are my only hope of putting this disease into remission. due to this disease i am also suffering from elevated b/p and sinus tachycardia because the disease affects my autoimmune system and puts my body in a state of perpetual "flight or fight" mode. i need to have physical therapy but cannot afford to have that either. i am single mother of two children and a former nurse. i have lost my job, my insurance and my ability to work because of this disease. that is my story, i hope it is sufficient.
