Welcome Winter, though of course I'm very sorry you have to be here. How long have you had CRPS?

I only see my GP and a pain specialist. To be honest, my GP doesn't treat the CRPS but she does the on-going prescriptions for the medications my pain specialist prescribes. (I'm in the UK so that works a bit differently.)

Early on, I had frequent physio appointments and did physio exercises multiple times at home. Now I just carry on doing physio on my own. I find the physio really helpful but you do need to be sensible about it.

I hope you are having a good day today. Take care.
