Since you mention shoulder/hand issues, I'd like to suggest - if CRPS is not a clear fit - that you read about thoracic outlet syndrome also (TOS) for short.
It is possible to have both TOS & RSD/CRPS too...
I haven't had time to read about your symptoms..
post #1 in our useful sticky thread is a comprehensive collection of info about TOS -

Thank you! I do have thoracic outlet syndrome. I've had it for years. I did a lot of pt for it probably 15 years ago, they thought being short and having a job that required the constant overhead arm repetition was the root.

I felt better for a while but can easly aggravate it. I do my at home stretches and exercises and it will ease it off
