With something as touchy and pervasive a monster as CRPS, any treatment carries risk with it, from pills to injections to surgery to physio. The eternal question is whether sttempting to stand still where you are with it is safer than trying a treatment. We have times when we can stand still, and feel like we have some control over our situation. At other times, standing just doesn't work, the monster attacks and you have to try running away from it instead, just to try and find some relief and a safe place to stand still again without it eating us alive. The sad scary part is that no one seems to quite have a cage to fit it

This is so true may I steal it for another group I speak with? Those ladies (and one awesome young man who would rather be a girl) don't have rsd but each has some sort of chronic medical issue.
