He never complains but its has to be annoying him some. i dont think i would have come this far if it wasnt for him, hes just wonderful... i didnt know that crps and rsd were different? my records say both i believe.. not sure. mostly crps though. is there a difference?

Good morning Barbara...
RSD and CRPS are one in the same..Just CRPS is a more current name for RSD.. Now RSD/CRPS is divided into two groups as CRPS I and CRPS II.. due to the injury and nerve impairment...their are many stages of CRPS which we all fall into a catagory...3 stages.. and to drive you a little more crazy..their are 5 stages of grieving thru this whole process..just as when you lose a loved one....so be patient with yourslef and everyone around you as we all have to ride the bumps and sadness of our illness...and it affects us differently than our loved ones...
I hope this helps you and talk to us..ask away anything elase you would like..we are here for eachother..and we are a great family!!!
Have a sweet day!!! Kathy
