Hi Vision! Thanks for your views on RSD and the Immune System. I wonder sometimes if my immune system was weakened prior to RSD too, but am just now sure. My drs just don't know enough about rsd yet, but I hope that whatever is causing it, they can cure it and soon.
By the way, I really liked your analogy of weakened immune systems, rsd and chickens and eggs. It made me smile!
Thanks again for your thoughts and kindness.
I wish you and everyone else a peaceful and low pain day today.
Sincerely, your friend, Renee.

I've seen lots of things talking about speculation that CRPS is autoimmune related but nothing so concrete before. It made sense to me though, at least in my case. I was an undiagnosed celiac at the time my symptoms started and while it took an additional two years after my celiac diagnosis to get my CRPS diagnosis, my swelling did calm down after I was gluten free. I won't be surprised if they can make a definitive link.
