****DISCLAIMER: We are NOT Doctors. We are CRPS Patients who have spent years researching and connecting with others to learn about their experiences to help others. We want to help in any way that we can, but we are NOT doctors. Please discuss anything major with your medical providers. Some say that patients become the best educators for CRPS, often due to a lack of support from the medical community, but we want to change that. 'CRPS has the highest rated pain, we want the world to know it's name' and we are Stronger Together. So let's work together to raise awareness, be supportive and get the answers to questions we all want to know. MEDICAL REVIEW PENDING**
