Default CRPS & Sleeping

Hi All. My boyfriend has CRPS and has had it for a few years. I've known this wonderful man for over 25 years and he is the love of my life. We've been in love with each other for that long and finally our lives have come together that we are able to be together. Its an amazing love story for sure

He has been totally upfront and honest with me about the CRPS and how he suffers every day and that there is never a moment that he doesnt have pain. He's taught me about this awful disease and I've done reseach on my own. He has a terrible time sleeping and struggles to get 3 hours a night. After about 3 months his body gives up and he sleeps for about 3-4 days straight only waking to eat and then falls right back to sleep.

I joined this forum because I wanted to continue learning about CRPS and what steps I can take to help and support him, especially during times when his pain is spiked.

Any advice or comments would be appreciated. Thank you!!
