Welcome Lori Lee,

I am so sorry that you have been introduced to this monster (CRPS/RSD). However, you have come to the right place for understanding. There are wonderful people here to communicate with any time you like.

Please be brave and keep a positive outlook. There is life after CRPS! Always expect the best, even if you don't see the light at the end of the tunnel right away. This will help you tremendously.

I agree with Karen that it is important to get aggressive treatment immediately if not sooner. Time is of the essence if you want optimal results.

Best regards,

EJ
