hey donna, thanks for your insights!. i have had fairly intense headaches the last few days and some visual disturbances so im finding it hard to focus on the computer screen at the moment.

Right so i get the idea about sub types of crps - but im getting confused with all the terminology - sodomotor dysfunction, vasomotor etc and dont seem to be able to find much on google to explain this - i will take a look through all those links when im feeling more up to it. So i dont have any burning pain -or extreme sensitivity - except for a feeling like there is something on my wrist, but i thought that was TOS symptom.....or it could be skin sensitivity in me!

Im also not sure which stage i would fit into either.....i havent always had the extreme coldness - the first year my hands would go red and hot - then i moved on to coldness......i get confused as thought that could be part and parcel of TOS.

Thanks for your PM too - i have been away from office work for 2 years now as there is no way i can sit at a computer and desk for more than 10 minutes - i have to sit padded up to the neck with cushions to use the laptop!

What tests did they do to diagnose CRPS in u?

take care
