Set the VCR starting on Monday!

Here is an important e-mail from the VA Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy Association:

The American Pain Foundation said, NBC's morning show TODAY, with Katie and Matt, will be airing a five-part series on pain beginning Monday, March 28 continuing through Friday, April 1, 2005.

The series will feature two APF board members: Dr. Russell Portenoy will appear on Monday's program to provide an overview of pain. Dr. Scott Fishman will appear as the lead consultant throughout the series, and will conclude the Friday segment with a presentation on pediatric pain. TODAY is broadcast from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM; they anticipate the pain segments to be aired in the second hour.

This is an exciting nationwide event, highlighting pain as a major public health concern. We are proud that the APF, its distinguished board, and its valued members have been instrumental in bringing the issue of pain to the forefront.

Please forward this news to an interested family member or friend.
Thank you.
The American Pain Foundation.

Dr. Portenoy has written many articles/abstracts on Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome, therefore he knows about the problems we face; be sure to watch these segments. If you find you cannot view them during the time frame, set your VCR ahead of time.

From the VA RSD Association: We're wishing you pain-free days and sleep filled nights.
