Sorry to hear what you are going through. I've been having a rough time lately and haven't been able to post much the past few days but just wanted to address your question about children.

Having CRPS absolutely doesn not mean you can't have children. It's obviously a very personal decision and some people choose not to but it's still possible. My RSD started in 2009...spread almost full body in 2011...and in November of 2014 I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She makes my life harder...but makes it worth living. Seriously...best thing in my life and there is always joy. No...I won't be playing softball with her when she's older or chasing her around the yard...but there are plenty of things we can do together. It's not a decision to make lightly of course...there will be rough days...but it is not impossible.

So please focus on getting yourself better and taking care of you and don't let that be a worry now.
