Naomi,
I wouldn't call it a "happy" anniversary but I've decided it's still
good to be alive. There is some question as to whether I can call my
sensations "Central Pain Syndrome" or not because I don't have the
three forms of pain defined, which include things like intolerance to
hot and cold and intolerance to touch. But I personally think the
electrocution sensation is pretty agonizing and without a combination
of lyrica and cymbalta I would be looking for a cliff to throw myself
from in a short time. I even use voltage references to describe how
I'm feeling to others and if they have never been zapped I recommend
they lick the end of a new 9 volt battery to get an idea of my
sensations.
You call yourself incomplete does that mean you have some use of your
body below the injury level?

Mindy,
Happy one year anniversary! I've never heard of Central Neuropathy
Syndrome. Electrocution is something I've always tried to steer clear
of. I worked for my local electric company, installing electrical
equipment for 25 years. I did not like getting those little zap then
and I sure wouldn't like getting them now.
