Thanks for all the good advice. --- The title should be changed now..the dx is CRPS.

As for flying, I fly a lot but haven't flown since being dx with this. I have no doubt I will be fine. The doc said to wear my sling so I won't get jostled and so I won't be tempted to do things I shouldn't Who me?


I had the nerve block on Friday morning. I am just now, Sunday morning, starting to feel some relief from it. I think we over did it at PT on Thursday. I think my PT guy was trying to find my limitations and we may have over done it just a bit. Won't happen on Monday.

I am still learning, just as I am still learning about MS. Keep the advice and tips coming.

And Yes, I learned about ICE. I figured that out pretty quickly. Although it's pretty common to not use ice on an injury after about the first 48 hours. I think the PT assistant was following usual protocol. She knows now.

Hope you all are having a good weekend!

I had nerve block injection #3 today and doc said that would be it. He said let's see what happens now. Since the pain hasn't returned inbetween the injections maybe they are working! Keeping my fingers crossed.

I continue the PT.
