I suppose that anything is possible with CRPS...it really is an odd condition. I will say that not having the pain would seem a bit out of the ordinary...as would your getting relief from COOL water or AC (usually cool/cold anything would flare up CRPS). Definitely would be something that I would want to get another opinion on because if it is something else that could be treated then that would be much better.

I have also read that many patients who are pregnant who have CRPS see a reduction in symptoms while they are pregnant...so there is the possibility I guess that your symptoms right now are mild but could get worse later.

There are probably a lot of other things that could be causing your symptoms too...so definitely would be worth getting another opinion. Would hate for you to possibly have something go undiagnosed and then get worse because a doctor shrugged it off as a "mild" case of CRPS.
