yes, after a period of neuro pain the CRPS increases. Even young people are experiencing CRPS from breaks and injuries from sports. Nothing new, just a new age diagnosis to the good ole "reumatism"
From what I have been told by the TOS docs its all about the brain neurons firing continually which brings it on.

I have read that crush (compression) syndromes involving nerves can increase the likelihood of developing an RSD. As if TOS weren't bad enough, it must be that much more heartbreaking to add something on top of the symptoms. I am wondering if doctors do anything to prevent or mitigate the chances of this occurring or is it just pure luck of the draw?
