All of these symptoms are extremely "normal" for CRPS/ True is different for everyone but yours seems to be very "classic" symptoms. As far as remission goes, it's tricky. It is MUCH harder to get it to go into remission after 6 months, or after it progressing, however I now it is possible for it to go into remission at anytime, like cancer, just as it's possible to come back at any time for any reason AFTER it's gone into remission.
Not a fun diagnosis to get. Sometimes I think the MIND has as much power as treatments. I think it's a combination of mind,body,and modern medicine. At least in the beginning.You never know though, I did hear of a case where a young girl in her teen developed full body and pushed into remission, I'll have to look up the link or site I saw it one. I think it was RSDHOPE......
