Want to talk with others. Have you found relief from CRPS?

Sorry to hear about your health issues with CRPS, I too was diagnosed about 4 month ago. I had a TKR and developed CRPS in the knee area. I have had granular shots in the knee and use a cream and patch when nerves are active. This has helped very much. The concern for me is that I am starting to feel nerve pain on the opposite knee and breast. Did yours start in one place and spread?

Mine started in my right foot and then after five months, spread up my right side and across to my left foot. I can feel it most everywhere now.
Yes, mine spread to other hand. Needles have caused permanent pain.

Unfortunately yes. It started in my ankle, nerve blockers worked on that. But then it jumped to my arm same side as ankle, then moved to my right arm so keep up with what works for you and see your doctor if your skin changes color. That's one of the big criteria for crps. It looks blueish and purple, I call it my mermaid skin..lol. you need to ask your doctor about it. Kit talk anytime you want. My name is Renee.
