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,

Yes, you can count me in on the devestating sweating...I have never been a person to "sweat" nor mind the heat.... but I do go thru blocks of time ie.. months of profuse untimeable sweating...Just as I woke up from having my SCS implant put in I began sweating and at that time it lasted for a few months on and off. I asked my doctor many times if possibly it be my age... I'll tell you..I am 47 yrs. old... she said it is the RSD without a doubt.. as I had a hysterectomy years ago. Iam not having this issue of sweating at this time but I have had it come and go several times having it last for manoths at a time...Hang in there.. I know it is troublesome.. but just another bonus of having RSD.
