Hey don't forget to check into the ACE inhibitor when it is an appropriate time. Take the article in case she hasn't heard of this. It is a little obscure.

Increased levels of bradykinin may not be your friend. There are also some bP meds, alpha blockers, etc that can be HELPFUL for CRPS and block extra adrenoreceptors that injured nerves sometimes create. Your PM might have a suggestion for something that could potentially help the overall picture.
I must confess, I haven't taken the ace inhibitor in a few days. I ran out and left camping forgetting to pick it up. I was going to go get it today when we get home. I haven't noticed too much of a difference but it's only been a couple days. I saw a fill in dr who Increased my ace and lowered my beta (I had normal Bp amazingly!) he wrote a note to my gp about a different med to consider that he said would help with rynauds...I was wondering if he confused crps with that or if he's talking about my blood flow issues..but I'm going to absolutely not be shy about talking vs only listening with the pm dr and will def ask about the ace. She did tell me in my visit to be sure to take my Bp meds regularly. But I don't know if she was just saying it cause they can't do the block if my Bp is too high...
(Jeez I'm gabby today lol) I dont know if it's weight loss and major diet change that lowered my Bp or the increased meds.
