It can be confusing...but both types of CRPS are the same condition. RSD is the "old" name for the condition but is the one that most of the doctors in my area (IL) seem to use. I have type 1/RSD.

So because I have diagnosed nerve damage, mine would be Type 2??? My PCP is a fairly new doc...apparently IL uses the 'old' lingo. Where in IL are you? I'm in Harvard, IL
Thanks for your help! This is so confusing....
