I was told by my doc (Dr. Schwartzman) that I wasn't allowed any innoculations, included flu shot. I'm an odd case as I have CRPS, MS, and Transverse Myelitis. BUT, I know other CRPS patients without multiple neuro-diagnoses that have been given the same prescription.

I'm immuno-suppressed, and in the past 4 years (since TM onset) I've only been normal sick twice, both following travel. I no longer work, avoid crowds, use hand sanitizer religiously and ask people I'm with to share in the joy, and I wash my hands every time I enter/exit or pass a sink... and most importantly probably, I stopped touching my face and stay away completely, or keep at least a 3 foot perimeter from someone who's sick (nurse's advice).

But it sounds like there's a lot of different opinions on this subject, so the best thing is always to get 1 or 2 opinions from doctors you trust - who are treating you for CRPS.

Best,
Melanie
