Gosh it’s been so long - and been so long since I replied to this.
I’m alive ... I have a warm house ... I am lucky.
I have been diagnosed with CRPS in my right hand and arm and after a collarbone break, which was repaired with a hook and sling and plates and pins, has been causing problems which ... are probably CRPS.
Went to the surgeon (it’s now 2 years since the operation) and he had said he would remove the plate and pins in the break was healed but ... he said because the hook snapped )two weeks after I’d had it put in) that the ligaments would all need to be lifted and repaired and they would have to lift them up ... and the force of that may break the collarbone again. He’d also have to cut some of the bone off of the top of my shoulder end ... all in all, he said any trauma to my body would likely result in the spread of CRPS.
Pah ... I am lucky ... I have a warm home and I dont have to work.
