I'm so sick and tired of these news articles and TV news that are not being specific when talking about the "opioid" overdose deaths !! Look at this chart, the painkillers line has almost no increase to it. It's the Heroin and Fentanyl, street Fentanyl not prescribed Fentanyl. They need to start differentiating between the illicit and the prescribed opioids. The illicit opioids are the problem NOT the prescribed opioids. I'd love to know also, how many of the painkiller overdoses here involved alcohol, other illicit drugs or were suicide overdoses. I'm sure if those cases were excluded from this chart the painkillers number would be even less.

There is a widespread misconception that a chronic illness only affects one system or organ. This could not be further from the truth. Neurological diseases, fertility diseases, gut diseases, etc, all impact the ENTIRE body. We are a jig-saw puzzle of intertwined processes. If one stops working, NOTHING runs smoothly.

Don't ever apologize for having a bad day and don't feel like you need to explain a good day. It's your life, it's your pain. When you feel good, enjoy it, make the most of it. When you have a bad day, rest, take as much time as you need. Don't feel guilty or selfish for putting your needs first. You're fighting a battle to survive everyday, you deserve to have your needs put first.

Hi, my name is Tracey, I’m 49-years-old, married and have two daughters. I’ve had RSD for 22 years.

My RSD story starts in Jan 1998. A toy V-Tech computer fell on my left foot, fracturing two toes and crushing the MT joints (toe knuckles). After two weeks, I knew something was wrong so I saw a podiatrist, who by the 2nd appointment diagnosed me with RSD. He sent me to a vascular surgeon who confirmed the diagnosis. I went through 6 blocks and a 6-day epidural over 6 weeks.  All worked, but wore off within 24 hours or less. But I found the RSD came back fighting, worse after each treatment. My leg was now on fire, but ice cold and so discolored from my groin to my toes. It looked like someone colored my leg with a magic marker. The decision was made to do a sympathectomy, which was done on March 17th, less than 2 months after the initial injury. The morning of my surgery, my big toe was beginning to get gangrene. Well, it worked, I went into remission for four years. I went back to work, got married and had my second daughter. When she was two, she had her tonsils removed and I stayed in the hospital with her. I fell asleep in the bed with her, not realizing that my foot was pressed up against the footboard. I awoke the next morning stood up and it was back, I could not put any weight on my foot at all without excruciating pain. I saw my Dr that week and he confirmed the RSD was back. My only real option was meds because the sympathetic nerve was gone down my left leg. It had started to regrow at the base of my spinal cord a 1/4 of an inch, that very tiny growth was enough for it to come back. The RSD ended up going full-body over the next 5 years, I was bedridden 95% of the time. I tried more blocks, lidocaine infusions over the years, as the nerve grew more, but nothing worked. It continued to get worse.

A friend suggested ketamine infusions with a pain specialist that she worked with, Dr. Robert Schwartzman, who was doing experimental ketamine infusions. I had to wait a year and a half for my appointment. I started the infusions in Jan 2007. I went initially for 10 days, then for 3 days every 2-3 months for booster infusions over a period of 10 years. The first 8 years worked pretty well. During the last two years, it seemed the ketamine had stopped working. My pain went through the roof again and the RSD started to spread to my right leg. My last infusion was in December 2016.

In April 2017, I started using the OSKA Pulse Device and that has brought my pain down to almost nothing. It’s helping with so many different symptoms and I have been able to take back my life and do the things I love to do again. I’m getting better relief from the OSKA than I did from the infusions. My pain was an 8-9-10+ on a bad day, the RSD was starting to spread into my right leg and a good day was a 5-6, with the infusions. My pain today is a 1-2 on a good day, and a 3 on a bad day, which is rare. The weather doesn’t bother me anymore.  I use to get 3-5 migraines every week and I have not had one since I started with OSKA. I also use to get shocking/electrocution type pains down my leg, those have stopped too. I haven’t had a flare in over a year. The swelling and discoloration are also gone. I’m in the process of decreasing my pain patch. I should be totally off it in January, then I’ll be off all meds.

I have managed to find some good in the bad and had started drawing Awareness pictures to keep my mind off my pain. That’s led to a Facebook Artwork page and a store on Zazzle where my designs are available on T-shirts, Fleece Blankets, Leggings, Mugs and many other items. I have items for over 35 different illnesses. I have made several donations with my royalties and continue to do so each month.

Below is some information on the OSKA Pulse Device and some pictures of my RSD foot & leg before and after using the OSKA for several months.

INFORMATION ON THE OSKA

Oska Pulse is a small portable PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic frequency) device. It’s the size of a cell phone. It has no wires or electrodes, and can be used anytime anywhere. It charges like a cell phone. It decreases inflammation, increases blood circulation and improves range of motion. It works on a cellular level.

When cells are injured or have degenerated, they lose their electrical potential and are no longer able to exchange ions, causing inflammation and pain.

Oska Pulse uses optimized PEMF to restore the electrical potential cells need to receive nutrients and oxygen, which stimulates cellular regeneration—relieving pain, and activating the body’s natural healing process.

It works great for all types of conditions including RSD/CRPS, POTS, Fibro, Lyme, MS, RA, TMJ, Migraines, Endometriosis and much more. I have a list of 150+ different conditions that PEMF can treat.

The great part is it doesn’t even have to touch your body to work. You can strap it to you, your arm, back, leg etc. Or you can just set it next to you or the affected area. You can put it in your pocket or your purse, on your lap, it will still work. You don’t feel anything, no tingling, no zapping, no vibration, nothing.

There are no side effects that have been reported. If it’s used properly, at least 6-8 times a day consistently, more if you choose to, it should work and give you pain relief. You have to be consistent and patient. Some people see results within 2-4 weeks, others it may take up to 2 months. Everyone is different but once you start to feel results, they only get better with continued use. It’s not a cure, but can reduce the pain so that you can get back to life and doing things you used to do.

The device can be ordered here:

$55 USD will be automatically taken off at checkout so the cost will be $344 USD. You’ll also get free 2-day shipping (in US) and a 30-day full money back guarantee. If this link is used, the company is willing to give an extension to 60 or 90 days on the money back guarantee if needed.

My RSD/CRPS story

Well my RSD/CRPS story starts in Jan 1998. A toy V-Tech computer fell on my left foot, fracturing two toes and crushing the MT joints ( toe knuckles).

My only real option was meds because the sympathetic nerve was gone down my left leg, but had started to regrow at the base of my spinal cord. That very tiny growth was enough for it to come back. The RSD ended up going full body over the next 5 years, I was bedbound 99% of the time. A friend suggested ketamine infusions with a Dr that she worked with, Dr. Robert Schwartzman, who was doing experimental ketamine infusions. I had to wait a year and a half for my appt. I started the infusions in Jan 2007. They saved my life, I've been going for 3 days every 3 months for my booster infusions for 9 years now. The RSD is back to just my left leg and my pain level is tolerable, 85% better. I've been able to go from 10-12 different meds to just 1, a pain patch, and that is half the strength it was before. I still have bad days, the weather affects me greatly, but my good days outweigh the bad...usually. Thanks for taking the time to read my RSD story. We need a cure for this monster, it's stolen so much from so many. Please spread the word about this horrific Illness.
