Hey rory...

I'm sorry things are crappy as hell for you right now, there are times things just get so bad you don't know if you can stand another day We get how that feels. I can only hope that tomorrow is better for you, and that you get some sleep tonight.

Hang in there and don't ever give up. I went through a couple of weeks where it literally felt like I'd broken my left wrist, it was so bad. I could barely lift my arm for the screaming pain. I started wearing that elastic tubing stuff for some support, and just battled through, and in time it faded off...mostly. Recently, I had a similar thing with my right hand, it was suddenly awful, and I was so freaked out, but again, in a couple of weeks things were easier and it's ok mostly now. Sometimes all you can do is battle on through it, tick the days off, and never give up that fight. Just try to keep gently moving - CRPS loves you to be still so it can dig its claws in deeper...

I'm not in your shoes, and I don't pretend to know how you feel, but I understand your fear of that unknown future, and the fear of the pain staying the same. It is a frightening thing to possibly have ahead, not helped when you still don't know for sure what's causing it. Keep up with your meds you have, and try to use whatever distractions you can to keep your mind occupied. I hope tomorrow is a better day and the start of a better time for you.

Bram.
