What do you do to help with that intense pain? (Besides retreating to the couch and curling up in a ball?)
Anyone have emergency immediate meds they can take? How long does the intense post accident pain last for you?
I seem to be particularly clutsy lately and hope that someone will have some tips for me.
Thanks and Happy RSD/CRPS awareness month!

When the pain rises for any reasons. I have learned to try and talk the pain down. Sometimes it can take minutes or hours. In all these years you do what you have too! I am so glad there are groups like this online. It is helpful to be able to share with other people. That are suffering with the same pain that each of us are dealing with!!!!LISAR624
