Hi Blue,

I am traveling now and can't get to my links on my home network. The study I was thinking of was not regarding hardware but addressing nerve injury (even cutaneous neuroma) if the nerve issue was causing CRPS. I will be back home late tomorrow and will try to find it. I did also read an article on hardware removal and pain decrease, not CRPS pain, but pain nonetheless.

I will work on this so you have the resources. Sorry about that. I just want to add that just because you lit up at the hardware site doesn't mean they shouldn't address it. Removing the pain contributor causing CRPS can make a difference even if some damage is already done.
