Personal History:

I was diagnosed with melorheostosis two years ago.  It was discovered via an MRI.  I have melorheostosis from the left hip all the way down to and including my left knee.  It did not bother me much until recently when the pain really increased.  The pain is intense, especially after working on my feet for a period of time.  I am forced to sit down and raise the leg to rest.  When I lay down at night after working on my feet, the pain is very intense. I do not know much except about it except what I am able to find on the internet.  I would like to attend the next conference.
