Don, I sympathize with you on the pain. I have what they call Phantom Pain..
Even though the foot and leg is gone the pain is still there. At times the pain
can go on for hours, it is enough to make a full grown man cry.. I have also
developed the shakes.
I had planned to tie at one session at the Sowbug Show in two weeks but I am
have to drop out on it.Had 10 days in the hospital, got out Sunday, still not
having good days. I think they have me on too many meds.Speaking of Sowbug,
show will have over 150 tiers over the three day show. 165 are signed up.

Hi Gary and all swappers, I’m still here battling to come back from the
stroke. Found recently that my debilitating pain is called Degerne-Roussy
Syndrome or “post-stroke central pain syndrome.” Also called thalamic stroke
pain syndrome. Long story short, the pain meds have failed and left me worse
off with the pain plus the side effects- which are themselves terrible. So for
the last 3 months I’ve been battling back to see what’s going to be my life. I
am just able to get back to my fly room after 3 months out of commission. I’m
doing plenty good health-wise- it’s just the pain issues are out of hand. The
pain gets so bad I can’t use my right hand even though it can do some things.
It also effects my right leg that way. So now I head to the bench to sort,
divide, and repackage 18 sets of flies, plus tie my set. I’ll give an update
after my first flies. I believe I’m waiting for one set to arrive. If my hand
works, it shouldn’t take very long. If it’s all gone from the pain, I have a
fall-back plan or two. Cheers, DonO Subject: [VFB] Pink Squirrel swap update?
Don, actually I just want to be sure you are OK. Gary--
