Default Linguistic & Communicative Functions

Hello Everyone,

I am finally off of my feet after being on them for about the last 3 hours, trying to get to my Pain Management Doctor's Appointment and find a Pharmacy that had my Pain Management Meds. Been a long day already.

I recently was told that my CRPS has moved into the areas of my brain that are responsible for controlling my Linguistic and Communicative Functions. My brain is often Blank, when communicating, my words are slurred, and I stutter and stammer. It has been really difficult communicating. As a result, I don't say too much publicly. I also took an American Sign Language Course years ago, when I had 3 Deaf People in one of the churches that I was the pastor at, so, I've begun to relearn the language. I have someone learning along with me, which really helps. If any of you struggle to communicate because of CRPS / RSD, ASL really is a great way to communicate. At least it has been a real God send for me. If you'd like information about books or apps for your tablet, iPad, iPhone, or smartphone, please let me know. There is some very good stuff out there.

Here's to your having a pain free day.

Have a great day.
