Well, today is my last day of a 6 week stint at the Canmore pain clinic in Canmore, Alberta. So glad to be able to go home, 6 weeks in a motel room can sure take it's toll on a person both mentally, and physically. I found that the clinic was a great help, in more then one way. The staff were well experienced in dealing with people who have crps, and knew better than to push to far during physio. The biggest benefit that I noticed was simply being around other people with crps for the first time, and sharing what worked and didn't work for crps with eachother. I didn't really improve much since I've been there, but I learned ALOT about crps and pain, and the different strategies to cope with the pain. Overall I feel like it was a good experience, and even though I am happy to leave, I think I would've liked to stay there awhile longer. I gained some friends, and have even learned of a few doctors that aren't too far from my home that are better experienced in dealing with crps then my current doctors. When I get home I am going to be very busy trying to find treatments that I have yet to try through these new doctors.
