I skimmed it, thanks but does not apply to me. CRPS type II for this long isn't good news anyway you look at it, however, I lived my life the way I chose until I was forced to change to an office job. Have worked in various industrial settings for over a decade. Stubborn to change. Blowing my upper back out at Boeing a few years ago and quitting drinking caused massive issues, but I refuse to resort to beer everyday drinking anymore. Occasional single malt scotch usage but even then it's rare anymore because what I like to drink is out of my price range.

I have no other options bud. Injections, diaphragm therapy, exercise at home, and then concentrate on compressed discs in my upper back and looking at the lower back afterwards. I'm not anti-surgery but the odds need to be damn good. Is what it is. I'm thankful the local doctors have long resumes and experience.

What does Celine Dions illness have to do with AA? Or crps
