I agree with so much of this! Thanks, I hadn't read his story...

When he said about doing 1.5 hours of exercise and massage etc a day, I smiled a wry smile...I may have mentioned a couple of times (lol ) that I have my hour a day most days that I do my CRPS management stuff - stretches, exercise, massage, and meditation. I have got back a lot of function with it, but not really lost the pain. I still get bad times, in fact I've been having a bad few weeks recently but I can still get about loads better than I did before.

I do believe in the positive attitude approach, and like most of us I try to be positive about it as much as I can. I think it does make a difference.

Good luck murgir Pop in to let us know how you're getting on every now and then, ok? I'll send some positive vibes your way I hope your return to work goes well, and have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!

Bram.
