Subject: Chronic regional pain syndrome

Some years ago I was offered operations, privately , on both my wrists, To remove the pisiform bones, I was given the usual " it may improve the pain, no difference, or it could get worse", just recently I've been offered an op to fuse my arthritic big toe, same outcomes again, but when I approached the NHS about my wrists , for a second opinion, I was told they'd operate only if I was in extreme pain, and had I considered the outcome if I developed CRPS, this, until recently little considered nightmare. Apparently there's no cure, no effective painkillers, it can last a week or a lifetime, and a programme recently mentioned the feeling was similar to placing my wrist in a bucket of ice and leaving it there for about an hour, needless to say I'm still in a state of indecision, there's little research into this awful problem, I believe it's an infection on the nerve, and that no one knows what really causes it, a short while ago my pisiform was so painful I tried icing it, for some reason it exploded in pain, then really swelled up, lasted that way for over a week, extremely painful, I haven't tried that again. No consultants, nobody, will give me any feedback of confidence to go ahead with the wrist ops, I'm not a specialist, I've plenty of pain, but do I risk this, anybody got any ideas, the operation will weaken my wrists, will limit movement, if I leave it much longer the arthritis may spread further, then it would be only part successful, but CRPS is a terrible after effect, poor hospital hygiene, I'd sooner stay away from hospitals these days, I simply don't know what the risk factor is, barry

Have you had any root canal treatments done? Do you have dental extractions?

Half my teeth are missing now, extracted, I'd say that with a full set I had root canal treatment with at least half of them, at one point I did have 17 crowns, no real decay, I lost the enamel, they just went transparent, they washed away,, Now you have me guessing my friend, I often wondered what the state of my bone density was, but more I've always been concerned about acid levels in my stomache, and body generally, I believe acid levels play a major part in arthritis., so where does CRPS come in, I'm intrigued, barry

Hi Barry,

(btw, Barry is not my "sock puppet" as someone has suggested. I'm sure this will become quite apparent.)

According to Dr. Jean Seignalet and others, you will have a genetic predisposition for your disease which you have no control over. However, that is not the sole factor. There are contributing environmental factors. One factor is diet. If you are eating the wrong foods you are likely to have leaky gut. Eat the right foods, the gut heals and you may get a 100% remission or a least and 80% or 50% improvement. Read: "How to prevent and reverse 100 diseases the new French way with Dr. Seignalet's diet miracle" (on Amazon).

It sounds highly likely to me that the origin of your problem is your poor dental health. I recommend reading "Toxic Dentistry Exposed" by Graham Munroe-Hall.

To relieve the pain, try this: get some savoy cabbage. It's the dark green, outer leaves you want. The darker the better. Try to avoid the ones in supermarkets because they hack off these outer leaves to "tidy up" the cabbages. Get some from a farm shop or local green grocer if you can.

Cut off one of the large outer leaves. Cut out the central vein. Roll over the leaf with a bottle to crush the subsidiary veins. Dip the leaf in fairly warm water and lay it on a bandage. Wind the bandage firmly round your wrist with the cabbage leaf touching your skin. Leave the compress on during the day and before retiring, refresh it with a new leaf or leaves.

This is only a palliative measure but it should be a very effective, safe and natural way of relieving the pain as well as giving you a period of relief from the symptoms. It's not a magic bullet but you should feel results in about 12 hours. Continue for a few days.

Well if it is my ' sock puppet', then this is a scary situation, well maybe not, I just ask the question, wait for 'hyde' to answer, brilliant stuff. Most of my life I've had so much mercury in my teeth, now it's crowns, cost me a fortune, I've have a sinus infection for nearly 5 months now, directly below it I had two more teeth removed with abscess, tried everything to clear the infection, that alone is poisoning my system, you're right about the teeth, I struggle with excess stomache acid so much, generated by stress, and of course, the diet. At 63 now, habits of a lifetime, just the remnants of gluten to go, but to keep it up so difficult, my only way out is the constant absorption of knowledge, there's so much here, and I do like to stay open minded, problem is, for example, when I have loud tinnitus I'm inconsolable, unapproachable, similar to when arthritis is flaring, and that's also when I'm so vulnerable, I've drawers full of alternative medicines, prescripted, well, painkillers get me by, but the rest, snake oil, or even worse, damaging. Your treatment with the cabbage interests me, I thought initially we were heading towards sauerkraut, I'll give it go, I drink cabbage water every day, then the cabbage, I'll take a look at the books for sure, thanks for your interest and help, I do respect others for their cautiousness, but this is an open forum, I'm glad it is, barry

Hi Barry,

Read also: "It's all in your head" by Hal Huggins. The dissimilar metal of the crowns set up galvanic currents with the mercury.

It sounds like you need a very comprehensive dental restoration program with Munroe-Hall and it will cost you a fortune - I hope you have some money put by. (I'm assuming you are in the UK.) Don't try and find a cheaper dentist elsewhere though - they are all bandits and will just wreak more havoc. Munroe-Hall is the only one in the UK that can be trusted (that is to say as much as any dentist can be trusted). Dentists are all in it for the money and I'm sure that Munroe-Hall is no exception - he has just found an alternative niche.

By the way, in my (non professional) opinion the tinnitus is also caused by your dental problems. I bet you are now regretting not having a better, sugar free, diet when you were younger.

Cheers Chris
