When I did my training in California, there was a Kaiser down the road. They did kind of the basics of of pediatrics. They had some of the pediatric specialties, but if things kind of became a little bit more complicated or more extensive, then they would refer to us at the local children's hospital, especially if they didn't have a specific kind of surgical option or things like that.

So it does sound like Kaiser initially referred them to Radiesse to go to this orthopedist who specialized in shoulder procedures. We are actually going through her second shoulder surgery. They created a cage around her shoulder joint with ligaments from other people or something and somehow recreated this cage around her shoulder and just to try to keep it in place.

So it sounded like this was a little bit more extensive, but it was still with this surgeon At Rady's during an admission for severe pain after this surgery. So now two surgeries and still with severe pain, unrelenting pain. She is admitted to Rady's and she is diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome, which

Anyone who went with us in the Kowalski case, that was the diagnosis that really played center stage. I would say in Madison's story, the Ehlers-Danlos becomes more of the story, but this was an interesting little sidebar where she was on the inpatient unit requiring pretty strong pain medications. And then they recommended, actually at Rady's, that she go to an inpatient pain program.

So complex regional pain syndrome, actually in this case, does seem like there may be parts of it that fit. So typically complex means it's difficult. It's difficult to treat. There's a lot of kind of comorbidities that come along with it, but it is a regional pain syndrome. So she injured her shoulder.

The pain of CRPS would be expected to be kind of in that shoulder that she injured and then distal to it. So through the arm area. where the injury occurred. Often with CRPS, you get other symptoms than pain. So neurologic changes, vascular changes, all of these other things in the extremity that is involved.

What is rare in CRPS is kind of more what we saw in the Kowalski case, which is kind of this whole body pain, all starts at the same time, very unrelenting. It does seem like at least at the beginning of this story that her pain was mostly in the shoulder and in that general vicinity, although... The information is limited.
