I was already retired when CRPS developed. However, I can say that I could have probably returned to work with some modifications that would be possible. I would have needed more time off than before the CRPS and I don't think it would have been easy.

It would really depend on the type of job and how well the pain is being managed. If a person is on a lot of meds with side effects that prevent them from driving or operating machinery or that prevent them from concentrating, that would certainly be a deterrent.

There are people who go into remission and I hope you hear from them. (I also hope that you become one of them.) Good luck with your quest to return to work. Remember that there is always hope!
