The brace, which my PT calls a corset, brings attention to my arm and blocks air being blown on it which gives me pain...

Not working and not moving are two different things. It's only because I worry, you pepper freak, that I ask the hard questions. The greater the dysfunction, the more worrisome that you'll end up one of the extreme cases. And as difficult as my RSD can seem, I am well aware that it is a walk in the picnic compared to those that end up needing eventual amputation. (Not that I wouldn't be happy without my arm if the rest of my health would return, but since that doesn't work...)
