I had surgery too. The surgeon was excellent and tried a new thing on me in the form of a titanium implant I'm my spine. I'm happy to say that although I've got a level of paresthesia and low level pain I can walk miles and have full mobility and flexibility. I'm extremely happy with the result.

Ive given birth with no pain relief although I was begging for an epidural by the end and it was to late.

I also tooth ache and when I went to the dentist id been walking round with my tooth split in half for two weeks Second time I broke my shoulder I walked round with it broke for a week as I couldn't be bothered to wait in a&e for 24 hrs. So I do have quite a high pain threshhold

I gave birth at home unplanned, I remember the paramedics asking I wanted gas and air to delivery the placenta, I just laughed saying I’d delivered the baby without it, I could cope. But the stitches in hospital were worse than the actual labour!

Oh and I carried on playing in a rugby match having dislocated my collarbone so assume I have a fairly high pain threshold.

Sorry to hear about hubby. I am incredibly lucky as I can manage the pain. I remember once actually been in floods of tears, as I needed meds, and i couldn’t physically walk to the chemist. Luckily one of my friends went for me.

My mate does have it worse. I think hers actually burst which sounded horrible. She had to have back surgery and have it taken out. Best thing afterwards she said. Mine isn’t in that category and she is same age as me.

Haha I did. It was a walk in the park compared to the pain in my back. But I am on a road to recovery. At least with childbirth, I have my wonderful son, with a painful back it is just ouch.

Absolutely!

My CRPS is limited to 1 arm and shoulder but sometimes just a breeze or patch of sunlight sets it off and I'm a huge baby about it! For everything else I'm ok after years of rugby and all the injuries with that, pretty high threshold I guess - but CRPS kicks my ass far more than I like to admit over the last 20 years - thankful that it hasn't spread beyond the damaged nerves but it's a concern!

Hope it's an LPD for you!

Mine started in my left knee, if it's a bad day I feel it from hip to toes. I used to feel very mild discomfort on my left shoulder blade, like I was being touched lightly with sand paper, but recently I've randomly got the alodynia type symptoms in my left shoulder and arm too. Rain hurts it. I feel sunburnt all the time. And when my kiddo wants to cuddle me it stings a bit when her hair touches my arm. It definitely hurts less than my leg did in the early years, but it's more annoying than my leg pain because it's not my "normal", if that makes sense haha.

Hope you have a lpd too
