Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

Some of you may not have heard of this term before but may be surprised to see you have these symptoms. It is important that you try to understand all you can about our complex "Illness". FMS is a very deceptive problem for us, handing us a handful of physical ailments for our doctors to struggle with. Please read onto these subjects below.
The list was compiled by a friend of mine that I had met on a Fibro e~group. She has a great group she is involved with and had invited me to join them. They are marvelous! This is info compiled by her. Terrific researching Mary Pat! Thank you for all your hard work! God Bless you!
