At least the condition is being talked about on a well known tv show. I was happy to hear it. They used spinal stimulation to diagnose the suspected CRPS. Turned out the diagnosis on the show was not CRPS. But it was considered and I am glad the writers did some homework on the condition.

I was diagnosed with several different criteria: skin color, temperature of hands were almost 2 degrees apart, and finally with positive bone density test. I was diagnosed in 1995, and was 3 months past the injury that brought on my RSD. I was lucky and my RSD is under control with meds. As much control as you can get with RSD at least.
