That was going to be my next question - a link between MS and CRPS! My PT guy asked me about that today as I was asking him about a precipitating event for CRPS. Wondering if it was the MS exacerbation I had in mid-November and/or the pinched nerve or what???? He said there doesn't always have to be a precipitating event. The doc confirmed that so...here I am, in the minority AGAIN!!

I am not one for depression. Never have been so don't expect this to put me there either! If I was, I would have been there already having been in pain like this and without the use of my arm since Mid/end of November! I look for the positive/funny side of things and don't dwell on the negative. Besides, I have so much on my plate right now, who has time!!!

I am learning to be left-handed which is hilarious because I am soo right handed it is ridiculous!

PT is a challenge but he is good and very patient with me.

Thank you everyone! I know my thread in MS has been a very long saga on my ongoing search for the cause of this pain but at last there is a light at the end of the tunnel! It wasn't exactly what I expected, but at least knowing is better than not knowing. It was like being dx'd with MS. Relief. Now we get on with the tx.
