[QUOTE=cndangel;783187]Hi all,

Last night my family and I went to a local fireworks show for Canada Day and the strangest thing happened. At first when the fireworks start going off I didn't notice anything but about a minute into the show and some of the louder fireworks started going off... I began feeling shots of pain each time one went off. It was a mix of shooting pain and a electrical sensation up my arm. My fingers also began sweating more and more after each loud bang. When the fireworks finished, I was sore but the shooting pain and electrical sensations stopped.

I know in the past I have noticed when my 2 year old is crying loudly that I have had a similar reaction, but I just thought it was due to the fact that she was upset and I had tensed my shoulder muscles. (as my CRPS is in my
neck/right shoulder/right arm/hand

Has anyone else noticed that loud noises affect their CRPS? Is this a common symptoms of CRPS?

Take care,
Karen[/
