He was not willing to give you a timeline because that is impossible...there is none to give. There is no cure for it, although you can go into remission at any time. Remission and a cure are not the same thing. I went into remission early on, but I came out and it returned with a vengeance! I started with it in my face only (almost 24 years ago) and then a few years after coming out of remission, it started popping up in various areas after minor injuries and mirroring/spreading from there. It is now in my face, hands, feet, shoulders, left arm, left leg, right side and lady parts...and going strong and causing many other issues with internal organs.

I don't mean to sound like a Debbie Downer, but this is a well-documented fact...if it is truly RSD/CRPS there is no cure.

Wishing you the best.

Thanks for the input Nanc. I mean this in all sincerity, could you link me to a resource that shows (and explains how the reached that consulsion) that no one is ever healed? I understand that their are many cases that spread and never resolve themselves but my doctors who have years and experence and that study I linked indicate their are many cases with some form of resolution (get better, heal). I have been steadly searching through what journals and studies and have yet to find something conclusive. Perphase I don't understand what i'm reading.
