I'm going to wait out the two weeks and see how things develop. about 95% confident it is CRPS but the good news is that while spreading seems a matter of time, they have really good confidence the pain wont increase. As the pain is almost non-existent at the moment, this is something to be thankful for.
Hello Harry,

I would hold on to hope that it is not CRPS given the fact that it has improved over the last few months and as you just stated above that pain is non-existent that is unusual for CRPS as the most prominent symptom is pain and increasing pain. Honestly, from my internet based opinion on what you have written that it seem less likely for it to be CRPS.

Hoping for the best,
Tessa
