There are so many random things going on physically and I don't know when to blame rsd or if I should be concerned. I could really use some support right now.

Sorry you are having a meltdown. Do a quick check of your meds to see if they could be the culprit.
Autonomic dysregulation due to progressing CRPS can also cause those symptoms.
Having no control over your body can also be related to having no control over your treatment. Maybe take a quick inventory of what you are actively doing to take control of your treatment. Do you have a plan? Are you doing your own independent research in addition to what advice you are receiving from the medical field.
Sometimes something very small like setting goals to be accomplished each day, and having a one month, three month or six month plan can not only force you to explore options, but can keep you focused on moving forward instead of being overwhelmed by where you are. It can also provide you will a picture, over time, of your treatment team, your treatment plan and it's strengths and weaknesses.
Hoping better days are ahead for you!!!!!!!
