I use to never sweat and now it seems that these episodes are happening all the time and at the worse possible time. Does anyone else have any issues like this? I dont want to blame it on the CRPS but I'm starting to wonder if this is just something else I will have to get use too. I almost feel embarrassed to bring it up but I thought I would check with you guys before jumping to conclusions and calling my doctor. I hope everyone is having a happy holiday and please remember to not over do it on the holidays. I know i did and I paid for it dearly all last week.
Take Care,
Sarah
Hi Sarah, I'm sorry for your RSD. It is an autonomic disorder, which means involuntary organs are affected. The sympathetic nervous system effects body temperature, circulation, and the immune system. We can have high blood pressure and low blood pressure. we can be sweating and then ice cold. Sweating is awful-we can be red hot and then bone chilling cold. We should never use ice on our condition. Hope this helps answer some questions. your friend, loretta with soft hugs
